Ingredients

5 cups rolled oats
2 1/2 cups over-ripe mashed banana, measured after mashing
1 teaspoon salt
5 NuNaturals stevia packets (or omit and use 5 tablespoons of any liquid sweetener instead)
2/3 cup mini chocolate chips, optional
2 2/3 cups water (If using the liquid-sweetener option, scale water back to 1 1/3 cups)
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon oil (I really like coconut, but vegetable oil will also work. For lower-fat substitution notes, see nutrition link below.)
2 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Optional add-ins: cinnamon, shredded coconut, chopped walnuts, ground flax or wheat germ, raisins or other dried fruit, etc.

Steps:

Preheat oven to 380 F, and line 24-25 cupcake tins. In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients and stir very well. In a separate bowl, combine and stir all wet ingredients (including banana). Mix wet into dry, then pour into the cupcake liners and bake 21 minutes. I also like to then broil for 1-2 minutes, but it's optional. These oatmeal cupcakes can be eaten right away, or they can be frozen and reheated for an instant breakfast on a busy day. Substitution Notes: For the banana: Applesauce will work, but you might want to add a little extra sweetener (and decrease the water according to how much extra liquid sweetener you add). For the rolled oats: I haven't tried quick oats, nor have I tried steel-cut in this recipe. So I have no idea how either would work. For the oil: I haven't tried subbing more banana for the oil. I am sure you can do it, and it will be fine texture-wise. No idea about the taste, though. Protein Powder? Perhaps you could add some protein powder to these (or replace some of the oats with protein powder). 88 calories WW Points (new system): 2 points per cupcake

These cupcakes were easy to make and turned out great! I used almond milk instead of regular milk and they were still delicious. The frosting was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall I really enjoyed these cupcakes.

I made these cupcakes for my family and they were a hit! The cupcakes were fluffy and moist, and the frosting was creamy and delicious. Everyone loved them, even my picky kids. I will definitely be making these again.

These oatmeal cupcakes were a delightful surprise! I'm not usually a fan of oatmeal, but the combination of oats, applesauce, and spices created a moist and flavorful cupcake that was anything but boring. The frosting was the perfect complement, addi
