12 People | 25 Minutes | 15 Minutes |
Ingredients
- 2 cups oats (quick cooking or old fashioned)
- 2 large very ripe bananas
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2-3 tbsps (tablespoons) honey
- 1 1/2 tsps (teaspoons) baking powder(I prefer aluminum free)
- 1/2 tspn baking soda
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp kosher salt
- Up to 1/2 cup mix-ins: chocolate chips (mini or regular), chopped dark chocolate, nuts, dried cranberries, or blueberries (fresh or frozen)
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 4000. Lightly grease a 12-cup standard muffin tin or line with paper liners. If using liners, lightly grease them as well and set aside.
Step 2
Place all ingredients except the mix-ins in a blender. Blend or process on high.
Step 3
Stir the ingredients once or twice as needed, until the batter is smooth and the oats have broken down almost completely, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in the mix-ins. Add the chocolate chips after the blend cools down, chocolate chips may melt and swirl as they are stirred.
Step 5
Divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups, filling each no more than 3/4 of the way to the top.
Step 6
Sprinkle with additional chocolate chips or nuts as desired. Bake for 15 minutes, until the tops of the muffins set. You can test the donness by inserting a toothpick in the center, if done, it comes out clean.
Step 7
Place the pan on a wire rack and let the muffins cool for 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and enjoy!
