Banana Oat Muffins


These are a favorite at my house, a great whole grain muffin that is a little sweet and has some chocolate too!

1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
1 heaping cup quick oats
¾  cup brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
2 large or 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed well
¼ cup canola oil
2 large eggs
1 tbsp vanilla
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Cooking spray

Preheat oven to 350 F. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. In a separate bowl combine bananas, oil, eggs and vanilla. Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients until well mixed. Stir in chocolate chips. Spray one muffin tin for 12 muffins with cooking spray. Place batter into muffin tin. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.  

Enjoy!!
