Apple Banana Oat Muffins

Apple Banana Oat Muffin

Ingredients

2 ripe bananas, mashed

3/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup all-natural applesauce

1/4 cup almond milk

1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 cup whole-wheat flour

1 cup almond flour (or almond meal)

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons rolled oats

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a regular-sized muffin tin evenly with cooking spray.

Add brown sugar to the mashed bananas in a bowl and whisk with fork until well combined. Add applesauce, almond milk, yogurt, and vanilla extract, and stir to combine.

In a separate bowl, add all dry ingredients and stir to combine. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir to combine (do not overmix to avoid dry and tough muffins). Pour batter into muffin tins, and sprinkle the tops of each muffin with extra rolled oats.

Bake for ~ 20 minutes, or until the center of one muffin comes out clean in a spike. Remove from oven and let cool completely before removing from tin.
