These hearty Banana SunButter Oat Muffins are sweet and wholesome, and combine the delicious flavors of banana, oatmeal, and SunButter, with a hint of cinnamon. The recipe is egg free and dairy free as-is, and can easily be made Top 8 Free using gluten free flour and oats, and canola or corn oil. These are great to add to my 1 year old son’s breakfast, as they pack in fiber, protein, and potassium, hidden in an innocent looking muffin.

I made these and they turned out pretty good. They taste like baked oatmeal muffins. I subbed apples and for the water, used coconut oil for the oil, and used almond milk. Delicious!
