Recipe 1 - Oats - Banana Breakfast Bars.

Oats Type Used - Instant Flavoured

Recipe Type - Breakfast

 

 



These are "instant" on-the-go bites which you can prepare in no time. I have used the flavoured instant oats here.



 

(these packs have a "good day" message on the pack. A new message for each oats-ie day)

Ingredients:  

1 sachet instant oats (i have used the raisin and spice mix. It gets the  advantage of having these added flavours, nuts, spices and helps save time )

1 medium banana

Method:        

Mash the banana and mix the oats to it.
Pat them on to a plate (greased or ungreased) and microwave for 2 minutes.

Reverse it so that steam does not make the cake soggy.
Cut into pieces and enjoy.

Notes:
Cooking for 2 or 3 or 4 minutes will result in different texture. Find the texture you love.
