Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour*
  • ½ cup coconut sugar regular sugar or brown sugar would work
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 very ripe bananas mashed (about 1 cup)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil other oils would work
  • 2 eggs whisked
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh sweet cherries pitted and chopped
  • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips I use Enjoy Life brand- they are allergy friendly and dairy, nut and soy free

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Spray an 8x8-inch square baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, combine flour or pancake mix, sugar, baking powder and salt. Create a well in the center of the combined dry ingredients. In the center, whisk eggs, banana, oil and vanilla together. Then stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients until just combined. Gently fold in cherries and chocolate chips.
  • Transfer batter to prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for approximately 25-30 minutes.
  • Let bars cool completely in pan before cutting- enjoy!

Notes

  • This recipe works fabulously using pancake mix, specifically Kodiak Cake Pancake Mix, instead of flour. If using pancake mix, omit the baking powder and salt.
  • I used whole wheat pastry flour. These also work well with spelt flour or all purpose flour.
  • When measuring out flour or pancake mix- spoon mix into measuring cup and use a knife to level, for most accurate measurements.
  • If feeding a crowd, double the recipe and use a 9x13 baking pan.
