If you are looking for a snack that is both wholesome and easy to put together, these zucchini oatmeal bars are going to be your new favorite. They are naturally sweet, moist, and perfect for when you want something satisfying without all the extra additives.

Since these bars are free from flour, eggs, sugar, dairy, and oil, they are a great option for almost any diet. My biggest tip is to make sure you squeeze as much liquid as possible out of the shredded zucchini so your bars stay perfectly chewy rather than soggy.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup shredded zucchini
  • 1 cup mashed ripe banana
  • 1/4 cup nut butter of your choice

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a small square baking pan with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Grate your zucchini and use a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to squeeze out all the excess moisture.

  3. 3

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded zucchini, mashed banana, and nut butter until everything is well incorporated.

  4. 4

    Press the mixture firmly into your prepared baking pan so it is level.

  5. 5

    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the edges are golden and the center feels set.

  6. 6

    Let the bars cool completely in the pan before slicing them into squares.

💡 Tips

Store these bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh for up to four days. You can also freeze them individually wrapped in plastic for a quick grab and go breakfast during a busy week.
