Equipment

  • food processor
  • 12-cup muffin tin
  • 12 muffin liners

Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats measurement before grinding into oat flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats leave these whole
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups bananas overripe & mashed
  • 2 tablespoon peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil liquid
  • 1/3 cup applesauce room temperature
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 350º F.
  • Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  • Pour 2 cups of whole rolled oats into a food processor and grind until it's a fine powder. About one minute should do it.
  • Mix the dry ingredients (ground rolled oats, whole rolled oats, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, salt) in a bowl.
  • Mash 3 1/2 to 4 medium to large overripe bananas in a bowl (about 420 grams of banana, but don't worry about exact weight).
  • Mix the wet ingredients (mashed banana, peanut butter, applesauce, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar, coconut oil, chai seeds) in a bowl.
  • Combine all of the ingredients and mix. I like using a rubber spatula to get the batter off the sides of the bowl. The batter should be liquid enough to pour.
  • Evenly distribute the batter into the 12 muffin liners. Fill each cup about 3/4 of the way, and distribute the remaining batter as evenly as possible. Feel free to lick the spatula when finished.
  • Bake at 350ºF for 20 minutes or until a knife comes out clean.
  • Take them out and let them cool for a least 10 minutes in the tin. After 10 minutes, transfer each muffin to a cooling rack with the liners still on.
  • Store in a closed container in the fridge for up to a week. Even better, store in a closed container in the freezer, and take a muffin or two out each night and put them in the fridge so they are ready to enjoy the following day.

Notes

  • Nutrition data is provided as a courtesy, calculated automatically, and may differ depending on your specific ingredients and amounts.
  • Make sure the bananas are overripe and brown.
  • None of the ingredients should be cold. If needed, let them sit out for a bit, or lightly heat them up until they reach room temperature.
  • You don't have to include the chia seeds with the wet mixture, but I usually do.
