Oatmeal Peanut Butter and Banana Muffins

  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 cup oatmeal (either instant or long cooking)
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. maple powder (or 1 teaspoon maple extract or 1 tablespoon maple flavoring)
  • 3 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 over ripe bananas (mushed up)
  • mix of sugar and cinnamon to sprinkle on top

Oatmeal Peanut Butter and Banana Muffins
In a large bowl, mix the flour and the oatmeal together, blend in brown sugar (I mix this with my hands, then I can make sure there are no "clumps" of brown sugar in the dry mix). Add maple powder (if using the liquid forms, add with milk), baking powder and salt, mix again until well blended.

In another bowl (or in a blender or food processor if so desired) mix the peanut butter, milk, (liquid maple flavor, if that's what you're using), egg and bananas. Mix well, then combine with dry ingredients, just until dry ingredients are moistened.

Fill muffin tins 2/3 full with batter. Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon on top. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes

Yield: 1 dozen
