How to Make Healthy Banana Oatmeal Muffins

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl: 1.5 cups old-fashioned oats, 1.25 cups flour, 0.5 cups sugar, 1.5 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp cinnamon, a pinch of ground nutmeg, and 0.25 tsp salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the wet ingredients: 1 whole egg, 0.25 cups neutral oil, and 1 tsp vanilla extract.
  • Fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined.
  • Mash 3-4 ripe bananas to make 1.5 cups and mix into the batter.
  • Prepare muffin tin by greasing or using liners, and fill each cavity with batter, making approximately 12 muffins.
  • For the topping, combine 0.5 cups old-fashioned oats, 0.25 tsp cinnamon, 2 tbsp brown sugar, and 2 tbsp melted butter (or coconut oil). Sprinkle over batter.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
