They are a major part of the recipe so definitely can't be left out. Aquafaba won't work as a replacement here. Applesauce might but it's a bit wetter so it will likely affect the texture a bit and the flavour won't work as well with the nut butter etc. I personally wouldn't make them with applesauce. Cooked and pureed sweet potato or canned pumpkin would be a better substitute and I'm pretty sure would work really well. Hope that helps!

Just made these--Fabulous! Used powdered peanut butter so I could make it a wee bit thinner; didn't have nuts so used sunflower seeds instead; omitted the chocolate chips but threw in an additional handful of raisins. These are substantial bars! Just for fun I might try adding some hemp seed hearts to the next batch. Thank you!!

I think in this recipe you could probably get away with omitting them, or using any other dried fruit you fancy instead.

I know they contribute to the final texture and add sweetness, but could you suggest a substitute? Thanks.

Thank you Barb. I haven't tried it but am pretty sure that in this recipe you could safely leave it out without it affecting the structure of the bars. You would need to add some other liquid to compensate though. Some plant milk at the same amount should do it. And be sure to use really, really ripe bananas so they are extra sweet.

Thanks!
