Monkey Bars


Found these in an old Parenting magazine I had and its so hard for me to get Asen to eat vegetables so I thought I'd give these a try!!

Monkey Bars
Cooking Spray
5 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup carrot baby food (stages 1 or 2)
1/4 cup sweet potato baby food (stages 1 or 2)
2 large bananas mashed
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 egg yolks
1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats (not quick cooking)
1 cup unbleached flour
1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)

Note: you can use only carrot or only sweet potatoes if that's all you have just make sure it equals 1/2 cup

preheat oven to 325

spray 11 by 7 inch or 9 inch square pan

In sauce pan melt butter, sugar, and salt allow mixture to cool for 5 minutes

Whisk in baby food, bananas, vanilla, and egg yolks
Add oats and flour until combined

pour into pan and back 40-43 minutes until tooth pick comes out clean

(optional) melt white chocolate chips and drizzle over top

I used a 11 by 8 inch glass pan and cooked them for 35 minutes and they came out perfect but I think my oven cooks a little fast too! So make sure you check yours!
