Banana Oats Muffin - 93 Calories

I came across this amazing recipe on Pinterest and just couldn't wait to try it.
All of my favorite things put together to make a delicious healthy muffin I love.
So I tried and unlike many of my Pinterest fiasco, this was a total success.
Aside from it being delicious, it is only 93 calories each.


It took me a few days, but I wanted to share it with everyone! 


Banana Oats Muffin

Ingredients:

*2 /1/2 cup oats (old fashioned kind, not quick cooking)
*1 single serving cup (or 1 cup) of plain low fat greek yogurt
*2 eggs
*3/4 cup sweetener of choice or 2 tbs stevia sweetener
*1 1/2 tsp baking powder
*1/2 tsp baking soda
*2 bananas


Let the Baking Begin!

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray tin with non-stick cooking spray or line 12 muffin tins with silicone or foil liners, (or just use a silicone muffin pan).
2. Place all of the ingredients, including bananas in a blender or food processor, and blend until oats are smooth. *Important: I add the oats a cup at a time and then add the liquids. I have to stop the blender and stir a few times throughout as well.
3. Divide batter among cupcake liners, and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.
SN: I had a few mini chocolate chips in the house, so instead of adding sugar I just added the chocolate chips. I loved it! :)










PS- The original recipe were made with strawberries. If you do try this recipe with another fruit, let me know how it turns out! 
Enjoy! 

Important: The paper liners don't work well when baking with a base that does not include flour, they always seem to stick to the paper. I sprayed the muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or you can use foil cupcake liners or a silicone muffin pan.
