We are seriously addicted to muffins at our house. Ever since I started making these, I just can't stop! I make them every weekend for the perfect on-the-go breakfast during the week. Just pop them in the microwave for a 30 seconds and they are delish!
I have also made these with almond butter instead of peanut butter and they are just as good. This is a great healthy recipe when you need a quick breakfast, snack, or dessert!
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup plain fat free Greek yogurt
2 eggs
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
2-3 ripe bananas
1/4 cup all natural peanut butter (you could also substitute almond butter)
1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray muffin pan with non stick cooking spray or line with cupcake liners.
- Place all of the ingredients, except chocolate chips, into a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. Add in the oats one cup at a time and blend in between.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Using a medium cookie scoop, divide the batter into each cupcake liner and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Serve warm.
I made these last night. The Recipe says put everything in except chocolate chips, which I did, but then says fold in the oats. Sooo I think my muffins are a little denser then normal because I blended the oats in! Also, they need some cinnamon and nutmeg...they ended up a little bland :/ Not my favorite recipe ever!
ReplyDeleteThe recipe says to blend everything! It makes for a smoother batter. I think cinnamon would be delish! I'll have to try that next time.
DeleteWonderful recipe! I subbed 1/2 c of the oats with flax seed, used 2 small bananas, agave nectar in place of brown sugar, and only had to bake for about 12 minutes. Delicious and so healthy :) Thank you for posting!
ReplyDeleteWonderful substitutions! I'll definitely have to try your version!
DeleteThese turned out great for me! Do you keep them in the refrigerator?
ReplyDeleteAwesome!! Yes, I keep them in the refrigerator and then just pop them into the microwave for about 15 seconds before eating.
