Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Healthy Banana Oatmeal Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your muffin tin and line it with paper liners or lightly coat it with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash 2-3 ripe bananas with a fork until smooth, leaving some small chunks for extra texture if desired.
  3. Add 2 eggs, 1/3 cup of honey or maple syrup, 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt (or applesauce), and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the mashed bananas. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  4. Gently stir in 1.5 cups of rolled oats, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
  5. Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  6. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
