Healthy Banana Oatmeal Muffins
Hi guys & girls,
The New year has just begun and like many of us, my New year resolution is to try out healthy stuff. I’ve been working on a lot of healthy recipes, but most of the time I find something not right. Either their not fluffy or have a weird texture or simply not so delicious.
As a baker, working with sugar, flour, and eggs has always been an essential part of my recipes. Trying to avoid these and feel satisfied is a task. So finally, after multiple trials and a number of failures, here’s a recipe I fell in love with. They’re not only delicious but easy to make and have a beautiful fluffy cake-like texture (which I’ve been looking out for in many healthy cake recipes)
Just follow the Healthy Banana Oatmeal Muffins recipe step by step, and I’m sure you’re going to love the healthy baking versions I bring to you this New Year 2020
Essential Ingredients
Oats
The most common oats available are rolled oats and instant oats. I recommend using rolled oats to get the right texture for these Healthy Banana Oatmeal Muffins
Almond Milk
Almond milk is a dairy-free healthier version as compared to regular milk. However, feel free to use regular milk if you’d like that
Nuts
I like the combination of oats and walnuts, due to which I’ve used walnuts in this recipe. If you’d like pecans, hazelnuts, almonds or any other nut, go ahead and add it. The nuttier, the better !!
Banana
Banana is a binding agent and also adds a mild sweetness to the recipe. Make sure to use ripe bananas for baking recipes. If you do not have ripe bananas just microwave the banana for 60 seconds before using, works well too. If your not comfortable using bananas, feel free to substitute it with a 1/4 cup of applesauce to make healthy banana oatmeal muffins
Egg
The egg is another binding agent in this recipe. It’s responsible for a good muffin texture. However, in your not comfortable using eggs, go ahead and substitute it with flax egg.
What you need to do:
Combine 2 tablespoons of flaxseed powder with 5 tablespoons of warm water. Mix well and let it sit for 5 minutes. Add this mixture instead of an egg into the Healthy Banana Oatmeal Muffins batter until well combined

Can you put these in the freezer once cooled?
Yes .. Microwave them as needed once out of the freezer
Hello!
I was wondering if it’s possible to do the same recipe with using a blender?
Hi Dasha
It’s really not required. Using a blender will yield a mushier muffin. This one’s crumbly and fuller
