Made this whole family loved it including my 20 month year old!
Can you add chocolate chips to this & if so how would you recommend doing so I.e mixing it in or just sprinkling a few on top? And how much? Is it best to remove the banana?

I cannot get my three year old to eat oats! It’s killing me. I mean he will eat capers, olives, all veggies, but not oat biscuits with white chocolate. I am going to try this as he loves banana. If it works I’ll be so happy!
