Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the brown sugar, milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
If using chopped walnuts/pecans, chocolate chips, or raisins, gently fold them into the batter at this stage.
Divide the batter evenly across the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven, and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your warm Breakfast Oatmeal Muffins or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
