These muffins are SO delicious and SO kid-friendly and you won't even believe that they have NO sugar, oil, or flour!! Whip these up and pair with a glass of ice-cold milk for a delicious and healthy breakfast or after school snack! 

Banana Oat Muffins

Ingredients:

2.5 cups Quick Oats (You can substitute rolled oats for these but the muffins come out just a little dense.) 

1 cup plain low fat greek yogurt

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

1/2 cup honey

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

2 TBSP ground flax seed (I use golden flaxseed meal in these)

1 tsp vanilla

2 large ripe bananas mashed

Optional add-ins: Dark chocolate chips, chopped nuts, raisins, etc. to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray tin with non-stick cooking spray or line 12 muffin tins with cupcake liners.
2. Place the oats in the food processor/blender and pulse for about 10 seconds, just until they become like a ground meal.

3. Mix processed oats with all remaining ingredients in a bowl until well mixed. 

4. Divide batter among cupcake liners, and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean. 

Note: The tops of these muffins don't really brown, so be sure you don't over bake them. Just bake until the toothpick comes out clean. 

ENJOY!!
