Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 350° F (~176° C) and grease a muffin tin or prepare silicone muffin cups.

Step 2

Pit the dates if needed and soak in 1/2 cup very warm water for about 5 min. Then drain the water

Step 3

If you're using frozen bananas defrost in the microwave until soft.

Step 4

In a high speed blender or food processor, blend eggs, dates and bananas until smooth. May need to add 2 TBSP water or preferred milk of choice if it is hard to blend and very thick.

Step 5

Add oats, cinnamon and baking soda blend until incorporated. Just pulse a few times, try not to overblend. The oats will still be slightly lumpy (it does not need to be "smooth")

Step 6

Add ~2 tbsp of batter to a greased muffin tin or non-stick silicone muffin cups. Be careful not to overfill.

Step 7

Bake for about 20-25 minutes (depending on your oven and altitude) until lightly brown on top or until a toothpick comes out clean. You may want to check on these at 15-18 min if you live at lower altitude or your oven runs "hot."

Step 8

These muffins may turn darker over time due to the dates and cinnamon. Serve with warm butter and enjoy!
