Description
The generous amount of peanut butter makes these bars taste rich and creamy, the banana keeps it *ultra* moist and takes on a mellow background flavor, and the oatmeal holds it all together plus some chocolate thrown in for good measure 🙂 these are better the next day, don't contain eggs or flour, and are a good way to use up some ripe bananas!
