Healthy-ish Banana Oatmeal Muffins

This was my first full week of work at the library, and I knew I'd need some hearty snacks to munch on my breaks for an energy boost. I whipped up these simple, sorta-healthy oatmeal banana muffins, which have no flour, oil or sugar. They're the perfect take-along -- moist, filling, tasty and not horrible for you!

The recipe is slightly adapted from this version at Illustrated Nutrition.

Healthy-ish Banana Oatmeal Muffins

Yield: 10 muffins

2 ripe or over-ripe bananas, mashed

1 1/2 cups rolled oats

1 egg

1 cup milk (regular or almond both work)

1/2 Tbsp baking powder

1 1/2 tsp vanilla

1/4 cup dark chocolate chunks

2 Tbsp honey (adjust to your preferred sweetness level; this amount makes a mildly sweet muffin)

 

Combine all ingredients and divide evenly between 10 greased slots in a muffin tin. Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes.
