Looking for a healthy, quick, and easy breakfast option? These banana-pumpkin oatmeal bars are a must-try!

Bananas and pumpkin might not sound like the perfect match, but when baked together with oatmeal, they create a truly irresistible combination.

These bars are the perfect base for a wholesome breakfast or a grab-and-go snack.

Here’s all you need to get started:

• Bananas
• Pumpkin purée
• Oatmeal

Want to make them a little sweeter? Add a touch of natural maple syrup or honey for a guilt-free treat.

But why stop there? Add a bit of fun and texture to your bars with mix-ins like:

• Raisins
• Pecans or walnuts
• Chocolate chips
• Coconut flakes
• Or any other goodies you love!

These bars are a staple in my kitchen because they’re not only nutritious but also incredibly easy to make. My family loves snacking on the leftovers—they’re perfect for a quick bite or even dessert!

For oatmeal, we like to use Bob’s Red Mill Organic Oatmeal. The large, clean oat flakes are perfect for this recipe. If I run short on oatmeal, I’ve even substituted with almond flour, and the results were just as delicious.

For the pumpkin purée, I use my homemade batch—it doesn’t get fresher than that! But store-bought purée works just as well, so use what you have on hand.

Our last batch got an extra fun twist with Lilly’s Unicorn Chips—a healthier, colorful topping that’s always a hit with the kids!

Ready to give these bars a try? They’re sure to become a family favorite.

Have a great day!
