Jamaican Food: Banana-Nut Oat Muffins
Banana-Nut Oat Muffins
I’m always in search of some good gluten free muffins. It’s a more difficult task that you might think when you don’t eat dairy, sugar and flour.
But I found a pretty good Banana-Nut Oat Muffins recipe that was simple to make. If you’re used to delicious, flaky, mouth-watering muffins, then you probably won’t be a fan of this recipe. But for those who don’t eat real bread, or are looking for a healthy muffin recipe, then you’ll definitely enjoy these.
The muffins are a little dense because of the oats, but the taste certainly makes up for it. They’re also vegan, which means they don’t contain animal products such as eggs and milk.
Banana-Nut Oat Muffins
2 cups oats, ground into flour in a food processor. You can also buy oat flour in the store.
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 very ripe bananas, mashed
1 Tablespoon olive or coconut oil
1/3 cup applesauce

- Fold in oat flour mixture.
- Gently fold in walnuts. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan or cupcake pan.
