I love baking, but sometimes I don’t have the time or the energy to make complicated recipes. That’s why I always keep this 3-ingredient banana oatmeal muffin recipe in my list. It’s so easy, healthy, and delicious, you won’t believe it!
All you need are three simple ingredients: ripe bananas, oats, and chocolate chips. That’s it! No eggs, no flour, no sugar, no oil, no butter. Just wholesome, plant-based ingredients that make these muffins gluten-free, vegan, and naturally sweetened.
To make these Banana Oatmeal muffins, you just need oats, mash the bananas with a fork, and mix everything with some Chocolate chips. Then, you can add any extras you like, such as nuts, berries, or spices. I love adding some cinnamon and nutmeg for a cozy flavor.
Then, you just spoon the batter into a greased muffin tin and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. The result is soft, moist, and fluffy muffins that are perfect for breakfast, snack, or dessert. They are so satisfying and filling, you only need one or two to feel full.
These Banana Oatmeal muffins are also great for meal prep, as they store well in the fridge or freezer. You can make a big batch and enjoy them throughout the week. They are also kid-friendly and allergen-friendly, so you can share them with your family and friends without any worries.

These banana oatmeal muffins are the perfect way to use up your ripe bananas and enjoy a healthy breakfast or snack. They are made with only three ingredients: bananas, oats, and Chocolate chips. No eggs, no flour, no sugar, no oil, no butter. Just wholesome, plant-based ingredients that make these muffins gluten-free, vegan, and naturally sweetened.
These 3 ingredient muffins are easy to make in one bowl and take less than 30 minutes from start to finish. They are great for meal prep, as they store well in the fridge or freezer. You can enjoy them warm or at room temperature, with some nut butter, jam, or honey on top.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that it's hot and ready when you finish preparing your muffin batter.
Line a muffin tin with liners or lightly grease each cup with cooking spray. This prevents the muffins from sticking to the tin.
Peel the ripe bananas and place them in a mixing bowl. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the bananas until smooth. This will serve as the base for your muffin batter.
Measure out 1 cup of rolled oats and add them to the bowl with the mashed bananas. Stir the oats into the bananas until they are well combined. The oats will give your muffins texture and added fiber.
If you'd like your muffins to have a touch of sweetness and extra flavor, add 1/4 cup of chocolate chips to the banana-oat mixture. Fold the chocolate chips into the batter until evenly distributed.
Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, portion the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. This allows room for the muffins to rise as they bake.
Place the filled muffin tin in the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the muffins are set and golden brown on top. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin; if it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, the muffins are ready.
Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for a few minutes. Then, transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious and healthy banana oatmeal muffins as a snack or breakfast treat!
I hope you give this 3-ingredient banana oatmeal muffin recipe a try and let me know what you think. I’m sure you’ll love them as much as I do. Happy baking! 😊
