PREP: 20 minutes COOK: 30 mins TOTAL:  40 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cup of all purpose flour
• 1 cup steeled / old fashioned oats plus 2 TBSP oats for topping
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 egg
• 1/3 cup milk
• 1 ripe bananas
• 1/2 cup chocolate chip

Instructions

1. 1. 1. Preheat the Oven
         Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

      2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients
         In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and soda, oatmeal and salt until well combined. 

      3. Incorporate the Wet Ingredients.
         In a liquid measuring cup, add vegetable oil. Crack in 1 large egg and add 1 tsp vanilla extract. Mix with a fork till well combined. Then add the bananas directly into this cup and mash them till well blended.  Add the 1/3 cup milk at the end.

      4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Still gently until just combined. Don’t overmix as that can make muffins dense.

      5. Fold in the Chocolate Chips
         Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.  

      6. Fill the Muffin Cups
         Scoop the batter evenly into the muffin liners, filling them about 3/4 full.  Sprinkle with the reserved oatmeal.
         

      7. Bake
         Bake in preheated oven for 22-25 minutes or until muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

      8. Cool & Serve
         Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
