Are you tired of eating the same old thing for breakfast? Perhaps it’s time to try your baking hand at something new. Introducing, Strawberry Banana Oat Muffins.
1½cupsfresh strawberries chopped & tossed in 1 Tablespoon of flour
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425F degrees. Spray 12 muffins cups with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
Make Streusel: In a small bowl, combine oats, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and melted butter. Set aside.
In a large bowl, using an electric or stand mixer with paddle attachment cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
In a small bowl, beat eggs using a fork. Add eggs to sugar mixture and beat until combined. Add mashed bananas and mix until combined.
Sift all dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add sifted dry ingredients to banana mixture and mix until flour is just combined. DO NOT OVERMIX! Fold in floured covered strawberries.
Using an ice cream scooper, scoop muffin batter into prepared muffin tins. Sprinkle tops of each muffin with streusel topping. Bake at 425F for 5 minutes. Keeping the muffins in the oven, reduce the oven temperature to 350F and continue to bake for 12-15 more minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let muffins cool on wire rack for at least 10 minutes before enjoying.
Notes
Tossing the strawberries in a touch of flour before stirring into the batter keeps them from all sinking to the bottom of the loaf.
