Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Mashed Banana
  • 1/2 cup Peanut Butter
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Applesauce
  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 2/3 cup Almond Milk
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon

Add-ins

  • 1/3 cup Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Line a muffin pan with muffin liners and set aside to prepare for baking.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the mashed banana, peanut butter, unsweetened applesauce, maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the rolled oats, baking powder, and cinnamon into the wet mixture. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of all ingredients.
  4. Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Fold in 1/3 cup of chocolate chips gently into the batter to add sweetness and texture.
  5. Fill Muffin Cups: Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top of each cup for added flavor and visual appeal.
  6. Bake: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the tops are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Optional Topping: After baking, optionally drizzle with melted peanut butter for an extra layer of flavor before serving.
