These bars remind me of banana chocolate chip muffins, except for the pecans and oatmeal. They are really good, and if you wanted more of a dessert bar then I would suggest putting some cream cheese icing on top! That would be absolutely delicious.
2 c. all purpose flour
1 c. quick cooking oats
1 t. baking powder
3/4 t. salt
1 c. butter, room temperature
1 1/4 c. sugar
1 1/4 c. brown sugar (packed)
2 large eggs
2/3 c. mashed bananas (about 2 large)
2 t. vanilla extract
10 oz. semisweet chocolate, cut into chunks (or 1 1/4 c. chocolate chips)
Preheat oven to 350*F. Butter and flour 15x10x1-inch baking sheet. Blend flour, oats, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Beat butter in large bowl until fluffy. Add both sugars and beat until well blended. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in bananas, then vanilla. Stir in flour mixture, then chocolate and pecans.
Spread batter into prepared pan. Bake until tester inserted into center comes out clean and top is golden, about 45 minutes. Cool in pan on rack. Cut into bars.
Enjoy!
