Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas, mashed

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup whole wheat flour

1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)

1/2 cup Greek yogurt or applesauce

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

1/2 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped (optional)

1/2 cup chocolate chips or dried fruit (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with cooking spray.

    In a medium mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.

      Add the Greek yogurt (or applesauce), honey (or maple syrup), egg, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk together until well combined.

        In a separate large bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir to mix well.

          Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, folding gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

            If desired, fold in walnuts, pecans, chocolate chips, or dried fruit for added flavor and texture.

              Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

                Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

                  Once baked, let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                    Enjoy your Banana Oat Muffins fresh or store them in an airtight container for up to 4 days!
