Ingredients
  

2 large ripe bananas, mashed

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted (or unsalted butter)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with cooking spray.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and smooth.

      In a separate bowl, stir together the rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

        Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps left.

          If using, fold in the chopped nuts and chocolate chips gently into the mixture.

            Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

              Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

                Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
