Oatmeal and Bananas in a Muffin!
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 3 egg whites
- 2 eggs. I like using Egg-Land’s Best
- 2 cups mashed bananas, about 3 overripe bananas
- ¾ cup unsweetened applesauce
- ⅓ cup canola oil
- 1¾ cup golden brown sugar, packed
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- ½ cup walnuts, chopped
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup rolled oats, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously coat a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray. I recommend cooking spray with flour in it.
- In a blender or food processor, add 2 cups of rolled oats and blend until it becomes an oat flour consistency.
- Using an electric mixer, or in a large bowl using a hand mixer, add the oats flour, 1 cup of rolled oats, egg whites, eggs, mashed bananas, applesauce and oil. Mix until combined.
- Add brown sugar, whole wheat flour, walnuts, vanilla, baking soda, and salt. Mix until blended. Do not over mix.
- Fill batter into coated muffin pan. Fill each muffin cup to the top. Evenly sprinkle remaining ¾ cup rolled oats on top of the muffins.
- Bake for about 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Remove from oven, cool slightly and remove from pan.
