Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1 TBSP baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup plus 1 TBSP granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, melted
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 large, very ripe bananas, pureed
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1 1/2 TBSP chia seeds
- 1 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Line a 12 cup muffin pan with paper liners. Set aside.
- Place oats on baking sheet and toast in a 350 degree oven for 8-10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the oats and combine.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine sugar, melted butter, eggs, bananas, buttermilk, yogurt and oil. Mix until well blended.
- Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and gradually add flour mixture to egg mixture, stirring gently with a wooden spoon or spatula. Stir just until dry ingredients are barely combined.
- Do not over mix.
- Fold in the chia seeds and chocolate chips.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow to rest at room temperature for one hour. Alternatively, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Once the batter has rested, preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Using a large cookie scoop, portion batter into prepared muffin pan so that each liner is 3/4 full.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes. Tops of muffins will be golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffin comes out clean.
- Remove the pan from the oven and cool muffins in the pan for 10 minutes before removing.
