Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 medium Ripe bananas (mashed)
• 1 medium Apple (peeled and finely diced)
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cups Milk
• 0.25 cups Honey (or maple syrup)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cups Vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Stir in the diced apple, egg, milk, honey, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about three-quarters full.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. These muffins can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
