Yummy Monday: Oatmeal Banana Cranberry Bars

Another set of old bananas has found me in need of a a recipe that was NOT plain old banana bread.  An thus I found one here.  My modifications of this are below though:

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup of applesauce
1 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
3 ripe bananas, mashed
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup dried cranberries

Mix up the dry ingredients, save the oats and cranberries.  Set aside and mix together applesauce, sugar, egg, vanilla & bananas.  Stir in dry ingredients, after thoroughly mixed, add in oats and cranberries. 

Mix well.  Double points if your mixer is this cute :)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Grease 9x13 pan and add mixture.  Bake for 20-22 minutes, until top is golden brown. 

This is healthy enough to justify eating for breakfast, although it'll be good just about any time of day.  Enjoy!
