Ingredients

  • ¾ cup of white whole wheat flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ⅛ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 cup of bananas mashed (2 to 3 bananas)
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar substitute I used Lakanto
  • 2 Tbsp Unsweetened Vanilla Almondmilk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 119 Lily’s Dark Chocolate Baking Chips or another brand that works point wise Lily’s is 4 pts
  • 58 Lily’s Milk Chocolate Baking Chips 4 pts – You could do all dark, milk chocolate is higher points
  • 3 Tbsp of butter melted and cooled (I used smart balance light buttery spread – could sub applesauce)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Pull out an 8×8 baking dish. You can spray the dish or put a piece of parchment paper down. Parchment paper made it soooo easy.
  2. In a large bowl, mix mashed bananas, sugar, butter, vanilla extract, egg and almond milk.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda, spices and salt.
  4. Now with a spatula, mix in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Do not over mix. Just mix until the flour is no longer seen.
  5. Grab your chocolate chips, set aside a few to put on top.
  6. I counted out 27 chips so I could have 3 chips per bar.
  7. You can use your own judgment with that.
  8. Fold in the chocolate chips into the batter.
  9. Pour batter into the baking dish and top with the remaining chocolate chips.
  10. Bake for 18 to 24 minutes depending on oven. Toothpick test to make sure it’s done.
  11. Sit dish on cooling rack and cut once it’s completely cooled.
