Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 0.5 cup pure maple syrup
  • 0.25 cup coconut oil melted and cooled
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup mashed ripe banana
  • 0.5 cup milk dairy or unsweetened almond
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup mini dark chocolate chips
  • 0.25 cup old-fashioned rolled oats for topping, optional
  • 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar for topping, optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and lightly coat with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, maple syrup, Greek yogurt, mashed banana, milk, and vanilla. Slowly whisk in melted coconut oil.
  • Add wet ingredients to dry and stir just until combined. Fold in mini chocolate chips. Let batter rest 5 minutes to hydrate the oats.
  • Divide batter evenly among muffin cups (about 0.75 full). Sprinkle with oats and turbinado sugar if using.
  • Bake 16 to 18 minutes, or until tops are set and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Cool 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
  • Store airtight at room temperature up to 2 days or refrigerate up to 5 days. Freeze up to 2 months.

Notes

For extra moisture, use 0.75 cup Greek yogurt and 0.25 cup additional mashed banana. You can swap coconut oil with light olive oil. Do not overmix to keep muffins tender.
