Healthy Banana Oat Muffins (3 Ingredients)
Kode Iklan Atas Artikel
You might be wondering how just a few bananas and oats can make muffins worth eating?? The ripe banana is surprisingly sweet enough to exclude any added sugar, and your optional mix-ins give you lots of flavor.
There are an endless number of mix-ins, so you can really customize them however you want (cinnamon raisin, chocolate walnut, pumpkin spice, berry vanilla… you name it!). The bananas and oats are just the base.
Because these are so dense, It’s best to make them in a mini muffin tin so that you have small on-the-go snacks. The handy bite-size pieces are also perfect for toddlers and small children.
These banana oat muffins really don’t rise much (I mean… no flour, eggs or baking powder!) so you can fill the muffin tin all the way up. I wouldn’t recommend traditional paper baking cups because they tend to stick, but if you spray your muffin pan they’ll just slide right out.
I have to tell you, chocolate chip is definitely the winner!! It’s even better with walnuts or pecans for crunch. I also like to sprinkle in a little cinnamon for added flavor.
