Strawberry Banana Oat Bars

Ingredients

• For the strawberry chia jam:
• 2 cups (350 g) frozen strawberries*
• 2 Tbsp (30 ml) maple syrup
• 2 Tbsp (14 g) chia seeds
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• For the banana oat bars:
• 2 cups (160 g) rolled oats, divided**
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 2 medium-sized ripe bananas, mashed (200g or 1 cup)
• 1/4 cup (60 ml) maple syrup
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions

1. Make the jam:
2. Add strawberries and maple syrup to a medium saucepan set over medium heat. Heat until the berries begin to release their liquid, about 5-15 minutes depending on whether or not they were thawed first. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, until berries begin to break down and thicken, about 5 -10 minutes. Use your spoon to break them apart further if desired.
