Ingredients
2 large ripe bananas, mashed
2 large eggs
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup oat flour
1/2 cup vanilla whey protein powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
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 mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, eggs, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix together the rolled oats, oat flour, vanilla whey protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake 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 let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
Transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
