Method : Gather your ingredients and preheat the oven to 300F. Grab two oven-safe pans or dishes. Put the walnuts in one of the pans, and the wheat bran in the other, and put both pans in the oven. Toast the walnuts and the wheat bran until they’re a bit more brown and fragrant than before they went in, about 15 minutes. While the nuts and bran are toasting, mash the bananas and the dates in a medium bowl. The dates may not mash very much just get the mixture gooey.
Roughly chop the toasted walnuts. Add the chopped walnuts, the toasted bran, cinnamon and the salt to the bowl with the bananas and dates. Mix well. Add the liquid egg whites and mix until well combined. Place a piece of parchment paper into an 8x8 inch baking pan such that the paper covers the entire interior surface of the pan. Pour the batter into the paper-covered pan and spread it evenly as best you can. It’s ok if there are a few odd folds.

Put the pan in the oven and bake for about one hour and ten minutes, or until the egg white is no longer making surface bubbles, and the surface of the bars is no longer shiny. Remove the bars from the pan via the parchment and let them cool to room temperature before cutting to your desired size. Refrigerate and consume within one week.
