Breakfast Banana Muffins

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour 
  •  1/2 cup white flour 
  • 2/3 cup sugar 
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt 
  • 3/4 cup oats (I prefer Irish steel cut oats) 
  • 3-4 over-ripe mashed bananas 
  • 1/3 cup milk 1/2 tablespoon vinegar 
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil 
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla 
  • 2 eggs, beaten 
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts or Pumpkin seeds (I use whatever I have on hand. Pumpkin seeds, walnuts and pecans all go well with this.) 
Directions:
  1.  Preheat oven to 350°F and line 18-4 muffin tins with liners (or spray them with non-stick cooking spray)
  2. Mix the milk and vinegar in a bowl.
  3. Combine dry ingredients together in a separate bowl.
  4. Mix the mashed bananas, oil, vanilla, and eggs into the milk/vinegar bowl. 
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently.
  6. Add the nuts or seeds. 
  7. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tins and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. 
  8. Pop them out of the muffin tins and cool. 
*I don't like to store these in a sealed container as they get kind of mushy. I find that keeping them on a plate in the microwave works best.
