Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas, mashed

1/3 cup honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)

1/2 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1/2 cup chia seeds

1 cup rolled oats

1/4 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp cinnamon

A pinch of salt

Optional toppings: chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or shredded coconut

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas and honey (or maple syrup). Mix well until you have a smooth, homogenous mixture.

    Add the almond milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon to the banana mixture, and stir until thoroughly combined.

      Gradually add in the chia seeds and rolled oats, mixing until all ingredients are evenly distributed. If you prefer added sweetness, you can mix in a few chocolate chips or coconut flakes at this stage.

        Pour the mixture into a lined 8x8-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula to ensure it holds its shape.

          Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the freezer. Allow the mixture to freeze completely for about 4-6 hours, or until solid.

            Once frozen, remove the dish from the freezer and let it sit out for about 5-10 minutes to slightly soften.

              Using a sharp knife, cut the frozen mixture into squares or bars of your desired size.

                Store the squares in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month. Enjoy them straight from the freezer or let them sit out for a few minutes to soften before indulging.
