Yield: 12 Servings (12-14 oatmeal cups)

Dietary Preferences: Vegetarian, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free

Ingredients

→ Dry Ingredients

01 3 cups of old-fashioned oats
02 2 teaspoons of baking powder
03 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
04 Half a teaspoon of salt

→ Wet Ingredients

05 1 cup of ripe bananas, mashed (about 2-3 bananas)
06 1 large egg
07 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
08 2/3 cup almond milk or any milk you prefer
09 Half a cup of honey or maple syrup

→ Mix-in

10 1 and a half cups of blueberries (can be fresh or frozen)

Steps

Step 01

Set your oven to 350°F and start preheating. Grease your muffin pan or use paper liners to keep things non-stick.

Step 02

In a bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, egg, vanilla, honey, and milk until everything is smooth and blended.

Step 03

Stir in the oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until the mixture looks evenly combined.

Step 04

Carefully fold in your blueberries. Don’t overmix!

Step 05

Spoon the batter into your muffin tins, filling them about 3/4 full. Toss a few extra berries on top if you feel fancy. Bake for 25-30 minutes, and check with a toothpick—it’s done if it comes out clean.

Step 06

Let the muffins cool right in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then move them to a cooling rack. They need to be totally cool before you can store them in a container in the fridge.

Notes

  1. You can stick these in the fridge, and they’ll last for about 5 days.
  2. If you’re working with frozen blueberries, just add a little extra bake time.
