Delicious and super healthy, these gluten free Oat and Banana Blender Muffins are so easy to make and nutritious enough to have for breakfast!
First of all I have to stress how easy this recipe is. All you need to do is chuck the ingredients into a blender or food processor and blitz until they are all combined. With my Vitamix I had these beauties whipped up in 5 minutes.
And did I mention how tasty they are?! Honestly sugar free muffins have never tasted better. The texture of these banana oatmeal muffins is different than most muffin recipes. While moist from the banana, peanut butter and almond milk– they are dense and chewy, and they’re way less sweet than anything you’d find in a bakery or in a store.
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 1/2 cups of regular large flaked oats
- 1 cup of almond milk
- 1/4 cup of natural peanut butter
- 1 flax egg
- 5 soft pitted medjool dates
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tbsp of cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- pinch of sea salt
- 1/4 cup of organic dark chocolate chips (optional)
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees
- Place the oats in the blender and pulse to make a course flour
- Add the wet ingredients and blend. I had to use the black "mixer" piece that comes with my Vitamix to ensure a nice smooth consistency.
- Pour batter into lined or greased muffin tin
- Add your chocolate chips or whatever topping you'd like.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Cool and enjoy!
- You could always stir the extras into the batter before pouring the muffins in the tin. Chocolate chips, raisins, nuts and seeds, or coconut would all taste delicious!
