Healthy Banana Oat Muffins Recipe

My husband has a very high energy job. I made these for him as an alternative to his granola bars and snacks. I’ve done two batches now as he has asked for them weekly. These are all about the add ins. I have done cashew and coco nibs, blueberry pistachio, cranberry orange pecan, just to name a few. He loves them. I highly recommend.

Banana flavor was over powering in my opinion but I’m not much of a banana lover so this probably just wasn’t a good fit for me!

My toddlers absolutely love these! I made mini muffins as well as half inch think regular size. We did some plain and som blueberry. For younger children (less than one) I would definitely suggest the regular size but only filling it half an inch. Much easier for my 9 month old to hold and eat rather than the mini ones

Okay soooo I didn't have a cup cake/muffin thingy. So I used this baking dish. It was spread out a little too thin so I had to eat it with a spoon but if I would have used a smaller dish I probably could have made snack bars bc they do try to stick together. *jk I just didn't wait long enough for it to cool off. I ended up making some neat snack bars that my kids loved* I added an egg for protien, chia seeds for fiber, and salt, chocolate chips, peanut butter, cinnamon, and maple syrup for taste. It was really good. But I did use too many chocolate chips unfortunately. Also I only had old fashioned oats and they cooked perfectly. I will definitely be trying this again. Maybe I'll even try protein powder.

Very easy and very basic. Not loaded with processed ingredients. A great little snack that is also good for you! I also made some with blueberry add-ins and drizzled a tiny bit of honey over the top before baking.

Had no muffin tin so rolled into balls and placed on a normal oven tray along with peaches. 18 month old picky eater loved it

I really like how it is customizable and tastes great!!

I made for 12 and I recommend looking at the instructions with the picture of how it should look because depending on the size of your bananas it could be quite dry. Great recipe and would definitely recommend

Delicious! I made them with mini chocolate chips. Great breakfast for early mornings. I might add mini M&Ms and a little honey for sweetness next time.

Needs the mix ins, but delicious. Made cinnamon, chocolate chocolate chip, and apple. Delicious!

my son wanted skull muffins i added a little sugar and they were wonderful

Really good! I added in blueberries and chocolate chips! It tastes very similar to banana bread. Next time, I would add another teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Was very dry.... Dogs enjoyed it tho

Would be a lot better if blended the oats

Made 12

I had them in for 15 minutes and they kinda burned. I think I’d make again but without cooking it. Not the biggest fan of the texture

Would make again with a little bit of sugar and thr chocolate incorporated throughout

Absolutely love it. I think this will become a go to recipe for me. It's incredibly easy and incredibly quick.

I loved it, it was moist and not at all the texture I was expecting. And I added peanut butter and the saltiness of it went great with the banana.

Easy to make and l love that you can add different things to it to switch up the flavors.

I love this! I decided to put the "toppings" on the bottom of muffin pan then added the banana mixture. Toping in photo are blueberries ,cosmic apple diced, and fresh rainer cherries sliced. Added 2 to 4 tablespooms water to banana mix to make them moist. Bake for 15 mins.

Overall good, surprisingly soft and chewier than i expected (i thought would be hard like a rock 😂), very versatile and can add all sorts of extra toppings like raisins, choc chops, pb, matcha spreads. Good way to use overripe bananas w/o added sugar!

These tastes AMAZING!

added a bunch of chocolate chips! 😋🍫

There very good and there closer to 60-70 calories per piece Also I recommend added cinnamon and almond extract also toppings such as raisins, and blueberries work very well to make there taste brighter

really quick and easy breakfast! it tastes great with dark chocolate although a little hard but I like the sensation of biting into the firmness

EDIT: The banana bread flavors are the way to go. Nuts add a wonderful texture to all flavors. The berries were a little too tart. The cranberry was good but should have added cinnamon and the blueberries were great! This is a great base for an easy snack or breakfast! I had a lot of fun with these and toppings! I read in the comments of the recipe that they were dense, so I baked with baking cups so they wouldn't crumble when I pulled them out. I had blueberry and almonds, cranberry and hazelnuts, frozen mixed berries, and cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg with walnuts to create a banana bread flavor. I hope they are as good as I want them to be! Also, I really liked the idea of adding the crumbles to yogurt! I'll edit when I taste them!

It was amazing, even my grandma wanted a bite!

This was ok, but very weirdly bready.

Super easy, kiddo basically made these on her own (supervised). Added fillings to the middle as well as the top. Our bananas weren't super ripe so we ended up adding greek yogurt with honey to dip/top and add much needed sweetness and flavor and they were great!

I added a scoop of protein powder and topped with white chocolate chips. I also made it into a slice rather than Muffins, still getting the desired servings. I will definetly make it again!!

These were OK when warm but did not care for them the next day. It may have been too much banana flavor for me.

I added some honey and cinnamon instead of vanilla .

I cooked in frozen blueberries and greens for my own liking and added honey on top. It is delicious. Will be my go to recipe

I added 1/2 teaspoon of Cinnamon and ginger instead of vanilla

Add cinnamon and drizzle with honey for extra sweetness or agave nectar
