Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375ºF. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray or oil.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, add the mashed bananas, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and eggs. Whisk to combine.
  • Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and fold until just combined, being careful not to over-mix. Fold in the blueberries. Divide the muffin batter evenly between the greased muffin wells.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let them cool for a few minutes before transferring the muffins to a wire rack and enjoy!

Make It Your Way: Substitutions & Variations

No oat flour? - make your own by blending old fashioned oats or quick oats in a blender. Use certified gluten-free oats if necessary.
Make blueberry banana muffins (without oats) - use all purpose flour or gluten free all purpose flour instead of oat flour.
No coconut oil? - olive oil, avocado oil, or melted vegan (or regular) butter are great alternatives.
No maple syrup? - use honey instead.
No vanilla extract? - you could also use almond extract, ground cinnamon, ground cardamom, lemon zest, or anything to give them another dimension of flavor.
Add-ins - chocolate chips, sprinkle coconut sugar, turbinado sugar, or brown sugar on top of the muffins before baking.

Seasonal Variations

Berry banana oatmeal muffins - use another type of berry such as blackberries or raspberries. Just be aware that these berries have seeds.
Apple banana oatmeal muffins - use chopped apples instead of blueberries.
Peach banana oatmeal muffins - during the summer season, use fresh chopped peaches in place of blueberries.
Persimmon banana oat muffins - in the fall, use fresh persimmons in place of the blueberries.
