These monkey bars are lightly sweet and made with bananas and almond butter for a perfect snack we can’t stop eating.
Here’s what I can say about these Banana Monkey Bars…
The first batch disappeared before they even had a chance to cool. By the next morning, my son, daughter, and husband had each separately asked if we could make more.
The answer was yes. One bowl, six ingredients, and very uncomplicated. So nice to add to back-to-school lunch boxes, or grab for an after-school snack.
But this is the jaw-dropper. These are very moist and they have a tender crumb! Let’s be honest – this simply can NOT always be said of whole grain vegan baked goods that are free of all added oil, flour, or sugar, right?
So here’s to the best Banana Monkey Bars in the world! Hope you love them too.
