Banana-Oatmeal Muffins
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats, divided
3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
2/3 cup whole milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup honey
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
Combine 1 1/4 cups oats, whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl; whisk until well mixed.
Combine bananas, milk, oil, honey, eggs and vanilla in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined, about 1 minute.
Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture; beat on low speed until just combined and a thick batter forms, about 45 seconds, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups (a scant 1/3 cup each). Sprinkle the tops with the remaining 1/4 cup oats. Bake until golden and a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 18 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes; serve warm.
