Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups rolled oats

1 cup Greek yogurt (choose either plain or vanilla for additional flavor)

½ cup honey or maple syrup (sweeten to taste)

1 ripe banana, mashed until smooth

½ cup nut butter (choose between almond or peanut for richness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for aroma)

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (for warmth)

1 cup mixed berries (use fresh or frozen according to preference)

¼ cup mini chocolate chips (optional for a sweet touch)

⅓ cup chopped nuts or seeds (optional for added crunch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Baking Dish: Start by lining an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper. Make sure to leave an overhang on the sides; this will make it easier to lift the bars out later.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the rolled oats, ground cinnamon, and any optional chopped nuts or seeds. Whisk together until combined, ensuring the dry ingredients are evenly mixed.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), mashed banana, nut butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.

        Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until all components are well combined. Gently fold in the mixed berries and mini chocolate chips (if using) to ensure an even distribution throughout the mix.

          Spread in Dish: Transfer the combined mixture into your prepared baking dish. Using a spatula or your hands, press the mixture down firmly to create a uniform layer across the dish.

            Freeze: Place the baking dish in the freezer and allow it to freeze for at least 2-3 hours, or until the bars are firm enough to hold their shape.

              Cut and Serve: Once the mixture is frozen solid, carefully lift it out of the dish using the overhanging parchment paper. Place it on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut it into squares or rectangles. For storage, place the bars in an airtight container and keep them in the freezer. Alternatively, serve them immediately as a refreshing snack!

                Enjoy: These frozen snack bars are nutritious and delightful straight from the freezer, perfect for a healthy on-the-go snack option!
