My middle son is the inspiration for so many of my recipes, he’s my little future foodie. He had been asking me all week last week for banana muffins, but the problem was that he and his brothers ate all the bananas I bought so quickly I couldn’t keep them long enough to let them ripen for muffin-making! Finally I bought some very ripe ones at the store and made him these yummy oatmeal banana muffins over the weekend and he couldn’t be happier!
These are more of a breakfast muffin rather than a super sweet dessert muffin. I love that the oatmeal added in makes them extra filling also. If you are looking for a sweeter, more treat-like muffin I recommend this Banana Muffin with Crumble Topping recipe, but if you are looking for something to grab on the run for breakfast or a filling afternoon snack, this is the banana muffin for you!
