Scale
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 ½ cups rolled oats
  • 2/3 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/2 cup nuts or chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

Creating Healthy Banana Oatmeal Muffins is straightforward. Follow these simple steps for delicious results:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with cooking spray.
  2. Mash the Bananas: In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the milk, honey (or maple syrup), vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well-combined.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Add the wet ingredients to the mashed bananas and stir thoroughly to combine.
  5. Add Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, mix rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using). Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients and fold gently until just mixed.
  6. Optional Add-ins: If you'd like, fold in nuts or chocolate chips for added flavor and texture.
  7. Fill Muffin Tins: Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  8. Bake Muffins: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Following these steps will yield perfectly baked muffins that are moist, flavorful, and oh-so-delicious!
