Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups rolled oats

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed

  • ½ cup creamy natural peanut butter

  • 2 large eggs

  • ¼ cup flax seed meal

  • ¼ cup almond flour

  • ¼ cup plain non-fat Greek-style yogurt

  • ¼ cup agave nectar

  • 2 tablespoons vanilla extract

  • 1 tablespoon powdered stevia baking blend

  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon maple-flavored extract (Optional)

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 15 muffin cups or line with aluminum foil liners.

  2. Mix together oats, mashed bananas, peanut butter, eggs, flax meal, almond flour, yogurt, agave nectar, vanilla, stevia, cinnamon, maple-flavored extract, baking powder, and baking soda in a stand mixer or food processor until batter is smooth. Fill each muffin cup 3/4-full with batter.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool muffins in the pans for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
