Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1/2 cup | Quick oats |
| 1/2 cup | Milk |
| 1 | Banana |
| 1/4 cup | Sugar |
| 2 1/2 cup | Flour |
| 1/2 tsp | Baking powder |

Instructions
-
Combine quick oats and milk in a bowl, stirring gently until well mixed. Allow the oats to soak until the milk is fully absorbed, ensuring a creamy texture.
-
In a separate mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth and creamy.
-
To the mashed banana, add the egg and melted butter, combining thoroughly to create a homogenous mixture.
-
In another bowl, sift together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in dense muffins.
-
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease a muffin pan generously to prevent sticking.
-
Spoon the muffin batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full to allow for rising during baking.
-
Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Serve these delightful Banana Oatmeal Muffins warm or at room temperature, enjoying the comforting aroma and delicious flavor that Grandmom Manghan’s recipe brings to your home.
-
Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or freeze them for longer-term enjoyment. Simply reheat in the microwave or oven for a quick and satisfying treat any time of day. 🍌🧁
