Cranberry Banana Oat Muffins
Description
These muffins feature mashed ripe bananas blended with eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract, creating a moist, flavorful base. The dry ingredients include whole wheat flour, instant oats, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda to provide rise and structure. Dried cranberries add fruity bursts throughout. The batter is portioned into lined muffin tins and topped with a mix of oats and brown sugar for a crumbly topping.
Baked at 350°F, the muffins develop a golden exterior with soft interiors, where the oats contribute a chewy texture. The natural sweetness of bananas is complemented by the tartness of cranberries, and the topping provides a contrasting crunch. These muffins are suitable for a wholesome breakfast or on-the-go treat.
