Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Blueberry Banana Breakfast Bites.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, grab an 8-inch square baking pan and line it with parchment paper, letting some of the paper hang over the edges.
Step 3
This little trick will make it super easy to lift your delicious creation out later.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, chopped dried figs, chopped almonds, and a quarter cup of sunflower seeds.
Step 5
This blend of ingredients not only adds texture but also packs in a delightful flavor.
Step 6
Next, take a saucepan and over medium-low heat, mix together mashed bananas, peanut butter, and honey.
Step 7
Stir this mixture until it melts into a smooth, creamy delight—this should take about five minutes.
Step 8
Once it’s all melted and combined, remove it from the heat.
Step 9
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they become nice and foamy.
Step 10
Gradually add the warm banana mixture to the egg whites, whisking until everything is beautifully smooth.
Step 11
Now, it’s time to introduce the oat mixture to the party; stir it all together until well combined.
Step 12
For a burst of freshness, gently fold in some juicy blueberries.
Step 13
Now, transfer this vibrant batter into your prepared baking pan, pressing it down evenly to create a solid base.
Step 14
To finish it off, sprinkle the top with flax seeds and the remaining tablespoon of sunflower seeds for a delightful crunch.
Step 15
Pop the pan into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 30 minutes, or until the bars turn a lovely golden brown.
Step 16
Once they’re done, resist the urge to dive in right away! Allow them to cool completely in the pan.
Step 17
When they’re cool, use the parchment paper to lift them out, and then cut them into bars.
Step 18
Enjoy your homemade treats, perfect for a snack or a quick breakfast on the go!.
