Equipment
- Muffin tin
- Mixing bowl

Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- ⅓ cup chocolate chips or nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line or grease a muffin tin.
- Blend oats into a flour-like texture for smoother muffins, or leave whole for a chunkier texture.
- In a bowl, mix mashed bananas, eggs, honey or maple syrup, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until combined, then fold in optional add-ins.
- Divide batter into muffin cups and bake for 18 to 25 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool before serving.
Notes
Use very ripe bananas for best sweetness. Do not overbake to keep muffins moist. Customize with chocolate chips, nuts, or berries.
