Happy Muffin Monday! What's better than Banana Bread? How about Banana Bread Muffins? Better yet, Banana Oat Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Muffins! A mouthful in so many ways.
Ok, full disclosure - we're not really enjoying these today. We enjoyed these moist, delicious mouthfuls back in December. You may have seen them on my Instagram feed.
I had not planned to share them on here, hence the not-so-great photos from three months ago. I was about to empty the trash folder on my computer and came across these photos and remembered how great they tasted and wondered why I had not done a post. Also, I have not gotten around to importing from my camera, the photos I shot for the muffins made this weekend, intended for this post.
So, into my Muffin Monday folder they moved and now onto my blog and hopefully into your belly.
I can go on and on about these muffins, but I plan to keep this post short, so, six words - Bananas. Oats. Peanut Butter. Chocolate Chips. If I had to add a seventh, it would be cinnamon. I sprinkle it onto almost everything I eat.
Remember my PB&J Banana Bread pictured below? Well, these Banana Oat Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Muffins were conceived from that recipe.
In loaf or muffin form, this combination does not disappoint. Try them and see for yourself. If you go the loaf route, left-overs make AH-MAZING French toast!

Good Morning! Two of these and I'm good to go! They look as delicious and as hearty as the dessert bread that inspired them 🙂

Mmmm...I got 2 very overripe bananas sitting on the counter begging to be baked with. These muffins might just happen this weekend still.
