Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and lightly grease a 10-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, combine oat bran, all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to blend evenly.
In a separate bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the egg, milk, honey, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk the wet ingredients together until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; itβs okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
