Really, you can have no more excuses for skipping breakfast in the morning.

INGREDIENTS:

(Yields 4 squares / 0.28 EUR per square / 1.11 EUR for all)

1 tbsp butter or coconut oil for vegan version + more for greasing the baking dish (0.07 EUR)

1 tbsp honey (0.13 EUR)

2 tbsp peanut butter (0.27 EUR)

½ cup warm water (–)

1 banana (0.20 EUR)

Pinch of salt (0.01 EUR)

1 tsp pure vanilla extract (0.03 EUR)

2 tbsp ground flax seed (0.13 EUR)

1 ½ cup rolled oats (0.27 EUR)

METHOD:

Preheat oven to 200°C. Lightly grease a small baking dish with butter or coconut oil and set aside. Add butter (or coconut oil, if using), honey, peanut butter and water to a small sauce pan and heat up while stirring occasionally until everything is melted and combined. You can also do this in a microwave. Mash up the banana using a fork or a potato masher, stir in salt and vanilla, then add in flax seed, oats and butter mixture and stir until combined.

Transfer the batter into prepared baking dish, even out the top with the back of a spoon and bake for 30 minutes, until firmed up and crispy. Allow the oatmeal to cool off in the baking dish for about 5 minutes, before slicing into squares and carefully transferring on a rack to cool off completely and thus firm up a bit. Once completely cool, wrap each individual square in parchment paper or cling foil and refrigerate in airtight container for up to a week, for a quick grab in the morning. To freeze, just add individually wrapped squares to a zip-lock bag and thaw as needed.

SASTOJCI

(Za 4 kocke / 2,05 kn po kocki / 8,21 kn za sve)

1 žlica maslaca ili kokosovog ulja za vegansku verziju + malo za namastiti posudu (0,50 kn)

1 žlica meda (1,00 kn)

2 žlice kikiriki maslaca (2,00 kn)

½ šalice tople vode (–)

1 banana (1,50 kn)

Prstohvat soli (0,01 kn)

1 žličica ekstrakta od vanilije (0,20 kn)

2 žlice mljevenih sjemenki lana (1,00 kn)

1 ½ šalica zobenih pahuljica (2,00 kn)

PRIPREMA:

Zagrijte pećnicu na 200°C. Lagano namastite mali protvan za pečenje i stavite na stranu. U malom lončiću zagrijte skupa maslac (ili kokosovo ulje, ako ga koristite), med, kikiriki maslac i vodu i povremeno miješajte dok se sve ne rastopi. To također možete napraviti i u mikrovalnoj. Zgnječite bananu viljuškom ili gnječilicom za krumpir, dodajte u nju sol i ekstrakt vanilije, pa na kraju umiješajte lan, zobene pahuljice i mješavinu maslaca.

Smjesu izlijte u pripremljeni protvan, poravnajte stražnjom stranom žlice i pecite 30 minuta, dok se ne stisne i ne dobije hrskavu koricu. Pustite da se sve ohladi 5 minuta u protvanu, prije nego što ćete narezati na kocke i pažljivo ih premjestiti na rešetku da se ohlade do kraja i tako stisnu. Kada su kocke skroz hladne, zamojtajte svaku pojedinačno u papir za pečenje ili prozirnu foliju. Čuvajte u hladnjaku u hermetički zatvorenoj posudi do tjedan dana. Ako ćete kocke smrznuti, samo dobro umotajte pojedinačno zamotane kocke u plastičnu vrećicu i odmrznite po potrebi.
