Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 cup Oat flour
• 0.5 cup Rolled oats
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Mashed banana (ripe)
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.25 cup Honey or maple syrup
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 0.25 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 0.5 cup Chopped nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, oat flour, rolled oats, ground flaxseed, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk until well mixed.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, mash the ripe banana. Stir in the applesauce, honey (or maple syrup), egg, vanilla extract, Greek yogurt, and milk. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently fold them together until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

If using optional ingredients like nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter at this stage.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
