Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe bananas (mashed)
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.75 cup mini chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Step 3
Add the egg, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the mashed bananas. Stir well until the wet ingredients are fully combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet banana mixture, gently stirring until just combined. Do not overmix; some small lumps are okay.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 7
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
Step 9
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy these muffins warm or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
