Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 very ripe bananas (1 1/2 cups mashed banana)
  • 2 flax eggs (2 tablespoons ground flaxseed meal with 6 tablespoons water)
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 2 tablespoons non-dairy milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup golden monk fruit sweetener with erythritol
  • 1 cup + 1 tablespoons GF flour of choice
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup stevia-sweetened chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line the bottom of an 8X8 inch pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, mash your bananas and measure 1 1/2 cups.
  3. In a medium bowl, stir together the mashed banana, flax eggs, oil, milk, and vanilla.
  4. Stir in the sweetener until well combined. Add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until combined.
  5. Fold in half of the chocolate chips.
  6. Transfer to the baking pan and use a spatula to smooth the batter evenly. Top with the remaining chocolate chips and press them down slightly.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the bars to cool completely (at least 30 minutes) before slicing.
