Delicious and nutritious banana muffins designed to support lactation, packed with oats, flaxseed, and brewer’s yeast to help promote milk production.
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup brewer’s yeast
2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup honey
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brewer’s yeast, ground flaxseed, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, mix the mashed bananas, unsweetened applesauce, honey, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 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.
