Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (from 3 medium bananas)
- 1/3 cup salted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups oat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 cup blueberries or chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a muffin pan with paper cups or lightly grease with oil.
- In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, melted butter, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla, and milk. Whisk to combine.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the oat flour, baking powder and soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until smooth.
- Finally, stir in the blueberries or chocolate chips. Note: I divided the batter in half at this point and added 1/4 cup of frozen blueberries to one half and 1/4 cup of chocolate chips to the other half.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared muffin cups.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean.
- Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan before removing from the pan and transferring to a cooling rack.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days, or in the fridge for up to a week.
Notes
You can make your own oat flour in a food processor! Simply pour 2 1/2 cups rolled oats into your food processor and process until a flour forms. Measure to make sure that you have 2 cups of flour and then proceed with the recipe.
