Blackberry Banana Muffins:

I don’t know about you, but for me, nothing beats coffee and pastry first thing in the morning. If my waistline or metabolism allowed it, I’d eat that for breakfast every day. And you can bet these Blackberry Banana Muffins would be part of the pastry rotation.

How to Make Blackberry Banana Muffins:

Somehow, I ended up with a bunch of extra bananas that were a little too ripe for my liking. (Does anyone else prefer a slightly green banana?) And since I also had a large container of fresh blackberries from Trader Joe’s, I decided to whip up a batch of Blackberry Banana Muffins.

I topped the muffins with a sprinkling of old-fashioned rolled oats, and boy are they delicious!

I’m not going to claim they are “healthy,” but loaded with bananas, berries, oats, flaxseed, and honey, I don’t think they all that bad. If you wanted to up the health factor even more, you could cut out the 1/3 cup of sugar and use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin pans with baking cups and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork or electric mixer. Add the honey, butter, flaxseed, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add this mixture of dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix until almost incorporated. Then fold in the blackberries.
  • Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle each with additional oats.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes or until the tops start to brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes outs clean. When perfectly done, remove the muffins from the oven. Allow the muffins to rest in the pans for 5-8 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
