Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins

Don’t tell your family, but these muffins are actually quite healthy and make a hearty yet yummy grab-and-go breakfast. They freeze well too!

 

Ingredients:

1 ¼ cup old-fashioned oats

1 ¼ cup whole wheat flour

½ cup light brown sugar

1 ½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

2 large eggs

¼ cup Olive Cart butter olive oil

¼ cup milk

3 medium ripe bananas, mashed

¾ cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips

 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and prepare 16 muffin tins with liners or a light cooking spray. Combine all dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Combine all wet ingredients in a small mixing bowl. Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well. Fold in ½ cup of the chocolate chips and divide batter in prepared muffin tins. Top muffin batter evenly with the remaining ¼ cup of chocolate chips.

Bake for 17 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow muffins to rest for 10 minutes before removing and cooling completely on a wire rack.
