How To Make whole wheat banana muffins
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 375ºF and line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners; set aside.
-
Step 2In a large bowl, combine flours, oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg; whisk until mixed and set aside.
-
Step 3In the bowl of a stand mixer, add mashed bananas, beaten eggs, apple sauce, maple sugar, buttermilk, oil and pure vanilla extract. With the paddle attachment, process on medium speed until blended.
-
Step 4Add half the dry ingredients and process on low speed for 30 seconds. Add the remaining half of the dry ingredients and walnuts; process until just combined, cleaning the sides and scraping the bottom of the bowl.
-
Step 5Evenly spoon the batter in the prepared muffin cups, filling each ¾ full. Sprinkle the tops with oats and maple sugar. Gently tap the pan to dislodge any trapped air bubbles.
-
Step 6Transfer to the preheated oven and bake for 22 to 24 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out with just a few crumbs.
-
Step 7Remove from the heat and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 to 7 minutes before unmolding and transferring them on a wire rack to cool completely.
