These Gluten-Free Blueberry Banana Walnut Muffin Bars are a recipe I make often. They’re a great way to use up overripe bananas, which I seem to always have on hand. Initially this recipe was meant for muffins, but one day I felt like saving a little time, so I decided to spread the batter into a 9×9 pan and bake them that way instead. Lo and behold they turned out great and a new recipe was born. I like them with a small dollop of nut butter or yogurt on them, but they also make for a great lunchbox addition.
