Banana Oat Pancake Muffins
Revamp your morning routine with Banana Oat Pancake Muffins: a healthy and simple breakfast solution!
Sometimes making breakfast can be a pain point for many people. I know it is for me. Waking up early, preparing a healthy meal, and cleaning up can all add up to make the morning routine feel like a chore. However, breakfast can also be a breeze and even enjoyable thing to make. This recipe can be the solution to making an easier and delicious breakfast. These muffins are packed with protein and can be enjoyed by breakfast lovers of all ages.
The key ingredient on this recipe is the Kodiak Pancake Mix. This pre-made mix saves time and makes it easier to create fluffy muffin without having to worry about measuring out all the other individual ingredients. The mix also ensures that the muffins will be consistent in taste and texture.
Adding old-fashioned oats to the mix brings some other healthy elements to the recipe. Oats are a great source of fiber and can help to keep you feeling full and satisfied for longer. The oats also add a nice texture to the muffins, making them more interesting and enjoyable to eat.
What about adding bananas? These can add a natural sweetness to the muffins, instead of using sugar. Bananas are a great source of potassium and other essential vitamins and minerals. They also add moisture to the muffins, making them more tender and delicious.
Should we add chocolate chips? While it may seem like an indulgent ingredient, chocolate can actually be a healthy addition to your breakfast. Dark chocolate, in particular, is rich in antioxidants and can help to lower blood pressure and improve heart health.
For this recipe I used vegetable oil instead of butter. Why? Vegetable oil is lower in saturated fats, which can help to reduce cholesterol levels and improve heart health. It also has a neutral flavor that won't overpower the other ingredients in the muffins.
Who doesn’t like a muffin with a crunchy top? For the topping I used old-fashioned oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vegetable oil which adds a delicious and crunchy texture to the muffins. This topping is also a healthier option than traditional syrup, which can be high in sugar and calories.
