Description

I created these muffins to use up some bananas and have a nutritious snack for breakfast.

Ingredients

3 ripe bananas, mashed
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12 cup muffin pan with paper liners or coat with cooking spray.
2 In a large bowl, stir together the bananas, brown sugar, egg, vanilla and oil. Combine the whole wheat flour, oats, cinnamon, ginger, baking powder and baking soda; stir into the banana mixture until blended. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until the tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 25 minutes. Cool for a few minutes in the pan before attempting to remove them.
