If you want your house to smell like a bakery, whip up a batch of these banana caramel oat bars. I love candles with fresh baked scents, and there should definitely be a candle made that captures the carmelized banana smell of these bars! It is incredible! These oat bars are easy to make, and they got rave reviews from all the girls at work today. I have a feeling that these caramel banana treats will be requested for the next office party!

Caramelized Banana?! Oh wow.
I love bar treats! Banana bars sound heavenly!
All you have to say (or type) is “caramel,” and I’m automatically sold on the treat
Those sound great! If I had a cake mix…even a white one…I’d be making that right now!
I’ve never seen a banana cake mix before. I’ll have to look for one!
That bar looks positively sinful!
….mouthwatering
Cheers!

Mmm…banana and caramel. What a great combo. Seems like it would go together so well yet I haven’t seen it before. Sounds great!
Megan, I made these last night and they were so yummy! I had to make a few adjustments though. Couldn’t find a banana cake mix, so I sliced up fresh banana and made a layer, then put the caramel…YUM! I also add some cinnamon and vanilla to the mix
Thanks for a great recipe!
