Ingredients
1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 large ripe bananas, mashed
2 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup plain yogurt
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
In a large bowl, combine the old fashioned oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir well to blend the dry ingredients.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and plain yogurt until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
