There’s just something about the early morning, isn’t there? The cool air coming from a cracked window, the birds singing high in the trees, the sun slowly illuminating the sky, a new day beginning. The calm before the storm, it must be.


For me, this time of day is perfectly accompanied by a warm cup of tea and a homemade muffin. These banana oat muffins are delightful, warm and drizzled with honey, they are a perfect start to any day. Try them soon!


Banana Oat Muffins
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (or half white/half wheat)
1 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup mashed bananas
Combine flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt in a medium bowl
In a large bowl, beat the egg lightly. Stir in the milk, oil, and vanilla. Add the mashed banana, and combine thoroughly. Stir the flour mixture into the banana mixture until just combined. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper bake cups, and divide the batter among them.Bake at 400 degrees F for 18 to 20 minutes.
