Kid Friendly Banana bars

3 Bananas, mashed
1 cup rolled oats, I prefer the old fashioned ones, you can also add flax seed, sunflower seeds etc...
1 cup raisins
1 cup dried fruit mix, or trail mix you favorites
1 tablespoon of vanilla
*If you want some extra sweetness add agave nectar blends in really well
*You can also use just raisins or any favorite dried fruit

Combine all ingredients, add more oats if its still really "wet". You want it moist and pliable not sticky. Scoop out into a large buttered baking dish, smash it down. Bake at 350* until golden brown. When its done let it cool off and cut into bars. Ours lasted in the refrigerator about 7 days, you could also freeze it. My kids looooved this and its a wonderful treat that's healthy.
You can also add honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and any other number of things that you enjoy. Add it and try it, may come up with your own recipe.
