Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Add the egg, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix together the rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18–20 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 before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
