Ingredients
⅓ cup melted coconut oil
½ cup maple syrup or honey
2 eggs, room temperature
1 cup ripe banana, mashed
¼ cup milk or water (we used almond milk, but you can use whatever suits)
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp salt
½ tsp cinnamon, plus a little extra to garnish
1 ¾ cups white whole wheat flour
⅓ cup old fashioned oats
1 tsp raw sugar, to sprinkling on top (optional)
Directions
1Turn the oven onto 165 degrees and grease muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
2In a large bowl, beat the coconut oil and maple syrup together with a whisk. Add the eggs and beat well.
3Mix in the mashed bananas and milk, followed by the baking soda, vanilla, salt and cinnamon.
4Add the flour and oats to the bowl and mix with a large spoon, until combined. This is where you add in any extras like nuts, chocolate or dried fruit that you would like.
5Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups, filling each cup about two thirds full. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with a small amount of oats followed by a light sprinkling of sugar (optional).
6Bake the muffins for 20 - 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean. Place the muffin tin on a cooling rack to cool. You might need to run a butter knife along the outer edge of the muffins to loosen them from the pan.
