It’s hard to find a good gluten free banana muffins recipe. But consider this your new go to! These muffins have been made by many readers and followers who cannot believe how light and fluffy they are. And we can barely believe it ourselves! Alex and I have made many gluten free recipes that come out really dense, or call for hard to find ingredients or gluten free flour blends with additive. This muffins recipe came about from a challenge that Alex and I gave ourselves to make a healthy muffin we wouldn’t feel bad feeding our 2 year old Larson. We think that these healthy banana muffins hit the mark– and we hope you agree!
Why these gluten free muffins?
So, what’s so special about these particular muffins? With so many gluten free muffin recipes on the internet to choose from, here’s why you should make this recipe:
They’re made with mostly oats and bananas: no GF flours or weird ingredients! These gluten free banana muffins are made with straight up blended oats. So there are no odd ingredients or GF flours. That makes us much more apt to feed them to our toddler for breakfast since it’s more like eating oatmeal and a banana than a muffin.No refined sugar! Many muffin recipes are like eating a cupcake for breakfast. Instead, these muffins are lightly sweetened with maple syrup.They’re blender muffins! Somehow whizzing everything together in a blender makes for less mess than a normal muffins recipe.
After trying these out for us, one recipe tester said: “These gluten free banana muffins were great and super easy to make. So easy in fact that I’ve made them twice! The entire family enjoyed the recipe — it’s a winner!“
