Ingredients for Banana Oat Muffins

  • Robin Hood Oats
  • All Purpose Flour
  • Granulated Sugar
  • Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • Bananas
  • Butter
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

How to Make Banana Oat Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and oats.
  3. Add the brown sugar to the dry ingredients and mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, mash the bananas and then whisk in the egg and melted butter until smooth.
  5. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in the nuts, if desired.
  7. Fill the prepared muffin cups almost full.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The tops should be golden brown and spring back when lightly touched.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
