2 large eggs, (lightly beaten, may use flax eggs), 1/3 cup maple syrup (or honey), 3/4 cup milk (can use non-dairy milk), 1/4 cup cocoa powder

Pinterest

1 tablespoon instant coffee, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp cinnamon

Method: Place 1.5 cups of oats in a food processor and blend/pulse until they reach a rough, flour like consistency. Mash bananas well, they should have no lumps. You can use a mixer to mash them before adding the other wet ingredients.

Add eggs, maple syrup and milk. Mix to combine. Add dry ingredients (including the ground oats and 1 cup whole oats) to wet ingredients and mix until just incorporated. Allow these to sit for 10 minutes to soak the oats.

Scoop into muffin tin, well greased or lined with parchment muffin wrappers. Bake at 350°F for 20 -23 minutes. (Tops should spring back when lightly pressed and/or a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin should come out clean.)
