Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats
1.5 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

3 large ripe bananas mashed
2 large eggs
0.5 cup milk
0.33 cup honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
0.25 cup melted butter or coconut oil

Equipment

Mixing bowl
Muffin tin
- Whisk
- Spatula
- Measuring cups and spoons

Method

Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with non-stick cooking oil.

Mash the Bananas

In a large mixing bowl, peel your ripe bananas and mash them until mostly smooth. A few small lumps are fine.

Whisk the Wet Ingredients

Add the eggs, honey, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the mashed bananas. Whisk everything together until the mixture is uniform and pale yellow.

Incorporate Dry Ingredients

Gently fold in the rolled oats, flour, baking soda, and cinnamon using a spatula. Mix until just combined.

Fill the Tins

Scoop the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about three quarters of the way full.

Bake to Perfection

Place the tin in the center rack of your oven. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool Down

Let the muffins sit in the tin for about five minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This helps them set so they do not fall apart when you peel off the liner.
