Total time:
Serves: 12
- 1¼ cups old fashioned oats (quick oats would work, too if that’s what you have on hand)
- ½ cup low-fat milk
- ½ cup plain or vanilla low-fat yogurt (I used plain Greek yogurt)
- 1½ cup flour (all purpose, whole wheat, or oat- or a blend of these- will all work
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- pinch of salt (optional)
- 2 large bananas, mashed
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- ⅓ cup oil (canola, vegetable, sunflower, coconut, whatever suits)
- ¼ cup shredded coconut
- ¼ cup dried cranberries
- ¼ cup chopped pecans
- Pre-heat the oven to 400 and lightly grease a muffin pan or line with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl combine the oats, yogurt and milk. Set aside.
- In a large bowl whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pinch of salt.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and gradually stir in the oat/yogurt/milk mix, the smashed bananas, and the lightly beaten egg.
- Stir in the cranberries, coconut, and pecans.
- Fill muffin cups to about ⅔ full and bake for 16-20 minutes.
