Healthy Banana Chocolate Chip Oat Muffins

Ingredients

• 1.5 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 0.5 cups white sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 large eggs
• 0.5 cups unsweetened applesauce
• 0.25 cups skim milk
• 1 cup mashed banana

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper liners.

2. 2

   Stir whole wheat flour, rolled oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and chocolate chips together in a bowl. Make a well in the center.

3. 3

   Whisk eggs in a separate bowl until frothy; mix applesauce, skim milk, and banana into eggs. Pour wet ingredients into well made in flour mixture; stir just to moisten. Batter will be lumpy. Fill the prepared muffin cups about 3/4 full.

4. 4

   Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of several muffins comes out clean, 16 to 18 minutes. Cool in pan for 5 minutes before removing to finish cooling on wire racks.
