These delicious and nutritious muffins are made with ripe bananas and natural peanut butter, making them a great option for breakfast or a snack!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed (approx. 200g)
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (creamy)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 cup rolled oats (blended into flour) (135g)
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (25g)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, peanut butter, eggs, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add the blended oat flour, protein powder, and baking powder to the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- If using, fold in the dark chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a healthier option, use maple syrup instead of honey.
- Make sure the bananas are very ripe for the best flavor.
