Cheeky Kitchen blogger Brooke McLay creates protein-packed homemade banana breakfast bars.
Ingredients:
  • 1 very ripe banana
  • 1 cup Bisquick™ Complete pancake & waffle mix
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons brown rice syrup or real maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 bag (2 oz) pecan chips
  • 1/2 cup from 1 tub (16 oz) Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy Vanilla Frosting (from 1-lb container)
  • 18 dried banana chips, if desired
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and generously coat a 9-inch square pan with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the banana until it becomes smooth. Mix in Bisquick, protein powder, egg, and syrup until fully blended. Gently fold in chocolate chips and half of the pecan chips. Transfer mixture to a pan and top with the remaining pecan chips before baking.
  • Bake for 18 to 25 minutes until the center is set. Let cool in the pan on a rack for at least 30 minutes. Cut into 9 bars and transfer them to a rack or plate to cool.
  • Place the frosting in a small resealable freezer bag and microwave on High for 10 to 15 seconds. Snip a small corner of the bag off, drizzle the frosting over the bars, and delicately top each bar with 2 dried banana chips.
