I love to make muffins to have on hand for a quick breakfast paired with some eggs or for a quick snack at home or on the go. These Banana Oat Muffins are the perfect way to use up those overripe bananas sitting on your counter. In fact, the more ripe your bananas, the sweeter your muffins will be!

- 2 scoops Clean Simple Eats vanilla protein powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup fat free milk, Fairlife
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 6 tablespoons brown sugar, 75g
- 4 tablespoons melted butter, 56g
- 1 large egg

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Place the bananas in a blender or food processor and pulse a few times or mash in a medium sized bowl with a fork.
- Add all remaining ingredients (except for the chocolate chips) and pulse in the blender or add into the bowl with the mashed bananas. Mix until smooth.

These are GREAT. Seriously. The only way I modified is I used ~60 g of a random, unflavored, GNC protein powder since I didn’t have any vanilla flavored but it worked out well. I also used half the brown sugar. The texture is excellent since you blend up the oats.
So yummy! My family loved them this morning.
Hi Danielle! Thanks for the review! I’m glad you all enjoyed them. What a great weekend treat!
