Move over boring breakfast, there’s a new, tasty breakfast bar in town!

I like a simple breakfast and one that’s already prepared, a grab and go if you will, is the best. I made these Baked Blueberry Oatmeal Cups and Blueberry Mango Overnight Oats Parfaits which will both make your morning routine a little easier. Of course, straight up Overnight Oats are always a favorite for me. If you haven’t tried them yet, give them a try!

Blondies are brownies without cocoa. Technically, Homemade Peanut Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Blondies are blondies, but they’re not really a sweet dessert blondie that you normally think of. They are lightly sweetened with brown sugar. I think you could substitute honey and make them a little healthier, but I haven’t tested it.

The bananas make these bars soft and moist and the oatmeal adds texture and makes them nice and chewy.

Homemade Peanut Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Blondies Tips

1. This makes a great recipe for kids to help you with in the kitchen.
2. Add 1/2 cup of your favorite nuts, pecans, walnuts, almonds to the batter.
3. Perfect bananas for baking don’t look so perfect. Allow the bananas to get very ripe, very speckled or even almost black. The darker the skin of a banana, the sweeter the fruit will be. The sweeter the fruit, the better your dessert or Homemade Peanut Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Blondies will be!
4. Also, try adding dried raisins, blueberries or cranberries to your mixture.
