- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup flour all-purpose
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease the muffin pan or add muffin pan liners.
- Combine softened butter and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Add greek yogurt, egg, mashed banana, and vanilla; mix until combined.
- Add flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the wet ingredients. Mix until flour is just combined. Add the chocolate chunks and gently mix them in with a spatula.
- Add 1/4 c of muffin batter to each muffin cup.
- Bake for 20-22 minutes.
- Cool in the pan for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling.
Notes
- If you don’t have greek yogurt on hand, you can substitute sour cream or non-dairy yogurt.
- You can use frozen bananas if you're out of fresh. Just set them out until they come to room temperature and then remove any excess liquid.
- Out of eggs? Use a flax seed egg or try Ener-G egg replacer.
- Butter can be swapped for plant-based butter, ghee, or coconut oil.
- Chocolate chunks are the best, but you can also use chocolate chips and mini chips.
- Quick oats can work instead of rolled oats.
- Turbinado sugar is a great alternative for brown sugar.
