Print Recipe

These muffins are a quick, healthy snack made with ripe bananas and rolled oats, baked in an air fryer for a moist, naturally sweet treat without any added sugar.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 1/2 cups (135 g) rolled oats
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts or dark chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Mash the bananas in a medium bowl until mostly smooth with a few small lumps remain (2-3 minutes).
  2. Add the egg, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and whisk gently until combined (about 1 minute).
  3. In a separate bowl, stir together rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until evenly distributed.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Fold in optional chopped nuts or dark chocolate chips if using.
  6. Lightly grease silicone cups or line a muffin tray with paper liners. Divide the batter evenly into 6 cups and smooth the tops.
  7. Preheat the air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for 3 minutes.
  8. Place the muffin cups in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for 12-15 minutes, checking at 12 minutes for doneness with a toothpick.
  9. Remove muffins carefully and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

If batter is too thick, add a tablespoon of milk or water to loosen. Avoid overmixing to prevent tough muffins. Preheat air fryer for best texture. Can bake in oven at 350°F (175°C) for 18-20 minutes if no air fryer is available. Muffins can be frozen individually for up to 3 months.
