Gluten Free Banana Muffins

The perfect gluten free banana muffin. It's light, fluffy, and uses natural sweetener!

The texture on these babies is PERFECT. They’re light and fluffy, unlike so many of the gluten free muffins out there. I really appreciate that they’re naturally sweetened, and the little extra goodness from the oats makes my heart happy.

(You can hand-mix these if you prefer. Just puree the bananas beforehand)

Serves: 12 standard muffins or 24 mini muffins.

Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas, sliced
  • ⅓ cup coconut oil, avocado oil, butter, or ghee
  • ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
  • ¼ cup milk (I use almond or coconut milk)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup old-fashioned or quick-cooking oats (we use Bob's Red Mill gluten free oats)
  • 1¾ cup gluten free baking mix (we use Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 gluten free baking flour)

To top:

  • a few extra oats (optional)
These Gluten Free Banana Muffins are so good! They're also naturally sweetened and have the BEST texture!

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a food processor or stand mixer, combine bananas, oil/butter, syrup, milk, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Add cinnamon, baking soda, salt, oats, and flour. Pulse until just combined.

Scoop into muffin cups (if not using a silicone pan, you'll want to grease or line the cups first). If desired, top with a sprinkle of oats.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through. Let cool and serve!
