Banana Oat Muffins With Maple Syrup

10 Muffins
25 min

I always seem to have ripe bananas in the kitchen and these muffins are a wonderful way to use them! These aren’t super-sweet muffins, but they’re sweetened with some brown sugar in the batter and a drizzle of maple syrup on top after baking, which makes them a great muffin for fall!

The batter has some healthy ingredients mixed in, like Greek yogurt to make them moist, canola oil or light olive oil, and quick-cooking oats. Cinnamon and nutmeg give these muffins a light spice flavor and the maple syrup drizzle adds the perfect amount of sweetness on top! 

And for any maple syrup overflow that drizzles onto your plate, you can dip your muffin in it as you’re eating it, which is a yummy thing to do!
