Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 3 ripe bananas mashed
  • 1 cup grated zucchini about 1 small zucchini
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 Tbsp avocado oil*
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract optional
  • 1 tsp lemon juice**
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • cup chocolate chips optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a muffin tin with 9 muffin papers.
  • Pour two cups of rolled oats into a high-speed blender and blend until a flour forms. This will take about 20 to 30 seconds on a high power.
  • Mash the bananas in a large mixing bowl until creamy. 
  • Grate a medium-sized zucchini using a box grater and measure out 1 cup of grated zucchini. Transfer the grated zucchini to the bowl with the mashed bananas, along with the eggs, vanilla extract, oil, and lemon juice. Mix everything together until well-combined (wet ingredients).
  • Add the dry ingredients (oat flour, baking soda, sea salt, and ground cinnamon) to the bowl with the wet ingredients. Mix until everything is well-combined.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips (if adding).
  • Transfer the zucchini muffin batter into the lined muffin pan, filling them almost all the way up with batter.
  • Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the muffins test clean.
  • Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool for at least 30 minutes before peeling off the muffin papers to enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea.

Notes

*Use olive oil, coconut oil, or melted butter if you'd like instead of avocado oil.
**You can replace the lemon juice with lime juice, cider vinegar, rice vinegar, etc.
