Directions


  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Mix well.

  3. In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas. Add the applesauce, honey (or maple syrup), eggs (or flaxseed eggs), and vanilla extract.

    Mix until well combined.

  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  5. Fold in the chopped walnuts.

  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

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

  8. Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
