What is Oat Flour? It’s basically oats ground into a powder form. It’s an excellent wheat free alternative and a more nutritious option. If gluten-free is required, you can purchase gluten free oats. Alternatively, Bob’s Red Mill offers both options.
Here’s the recipe!
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups oat flour
- 2-3 large overripe bananas
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 1/3 cup raw honey *I love wholesome!
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tsp nutmeg
- muffin tray
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
-
Place oats in a food processor and blend/pulse until they reach a rough, flour like consistency.
-
Mash bananas well, they should have no lumps.
-
Add eggs, honey, milk and vanilla. Mix to combine.
-
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until just incorporated. Allow these to sit for 5-7 minutes so everything soaks well.
-
Optional: Fold in approximately 1/2 c fruit, raisins or nuts. *I used mini black currants
-
Scoop into muffin tin, lined with muffin wrappers (makes ~20 muffins)
-
Bake at 350 for about 20, a fork inserted in the center of a muffin should come out clean.
This is a great on-the-go breakfast option or the perfect afternoon snack for yourself and your little ones!
