Banana (Health-)Nut Muffins image

These were moist and tasty muffins that go great with coffee or tea. I did add chocolate chips into mine. But, these would be tasty with some nuts and raisins. A wonderful (and healthy) way to start the day!

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 c oats(quick or regular)
1/2 c plain yogurt
1/3 c honey (or agave)
1/4 c milk (i used almond milk)
1 c almond meal or flour (you can make your own by processing almonds in a food processor or blender)
3/4 c whole grain flour (i used oat flour. white whole wheat also works well, as does spelt)at
1/4 c ground flax
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2-1 tsp cinnamon
pinch of salt
2 mashed bananas
1/3 c oil (i like light olive oil or coconut oil)
1 egg
optional add-ins: nuts, raisins, chocolate chips, blueberries

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400F. Line muffin tins with paper liners, or spray well with pan spray.
  • 2. Combine oats, yogurt, milk and honey in a small bowl and allow to sit for 10 min.
  • 3. In the meantime, combine almond meal, flour, flax, baking powder and baking soda, cinnamon and salt and whisk to combine.
  • 4. Mash the bananas and add them along with the egg and oil to the oat/yogurt mixture.
  • 5. Combine wet and dry ingredients and stir just until dry ingredients are moistened.
  • 6. Scoop into muffin cups and bake for about 15-20 min., until muffins test done with a toothpick.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas are sweeter and have a more intense flavor, making them ideal for muffins.
  • Mash the bananas well: This will help to create a smooth batter and prevent large chunks of banana from appearing in the muffins.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a muffin pan with liners: This will help to prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan and make them easier to remove.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full: This will allow the muffins to rise properly without overflowing the cups.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack: This will help to prevent them from breaking.

Conclusion:

These healthy nut muffins are a delicious and nutritious snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized with different nuts, seeds, and dried fruits to suit your taste. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weekday breakfast or a healthy snack to enjoy on the go, these muffins are a great choice.
