Oatmeal Apple Banana Low Fat Muffins
Oatmeal Apple Banana Low Fat Muffins. High in fibre too! A very easy to make recipe for moist, delicious breakfast muffins that uses a minimum of vegetable oil and sugar, although you'll never miss it.
Oatmeal Apple Banana Low Fat Muffins are a great weekend brunch baking idea that also makes a terrific alternative to the Monday morning quick granola bar breakfast if you have some left over.
I think these are best served warm as a wholesome quick breakfast.
These dense hearty muffins are very satisfying with very little added sugar or oil. The mashed bananas and grated apple keep these muffins particularly moist and a few seconds in the microwave to warm them make them just as good the next day.

Thank you for a awesome recipe. I was craving something yummy but we are trying to live healthier .I found this on Pinterest and had all the ingredients so thought I give it a try .SO GLAD I DID! This really hit the spot. Going to make it a regular go to recipe. Even my 8 year old son loved them. If in doubt try it you won't regret it! Follow the recipe exactly.
These muffins are delicious! I am not ordinarily a fan of muffins and I had 3 this morning they are so good and healthy. Thanks for the recipe. My kids love them too!
I made these and followed the recipt to a T except I switched the apple for one container of Compliments organic apple sauce. I made 12 muffins and calculated them to be 184 cal. with 2.3g of fibre and 5g of protein per muffin
Is there a good substitute for banana? I can't use them but they seem to appear in recipes that otherwise sound fabulous.
How about crushed pineapple, or pumpkin puree?
I'm trying to follow an anti inflammatory diet and so I'm not using cane sugar. Do you know what a good substitute would be and the measurement? Maybe honey, or maple syrup?
I'd try either of those.
I made these and doubled the recipe! I threw in flax, used green apples and used three bananas. They are so good!
My question: store in the refrigerator?
I only store things like that in the fridge if I think they will last for more than a couple of days.
I want to replace the sugar with honey. Also is that old fashioned or quick oats? Can I use coconut milk instead?
I've never made them with substitutions but feel free to share your results.
Do you think you can use an almond or coconut flour instead of whole wheat flour?
Never tried it.
Loved this recipe!
I am back to your website to write down your recipe... I made them once already and the husband loves them!!
I did make a few substitutions for our families dietary needs...
Gluten free flour, olive oil and coconut sugar and they were AMAZINGLY moist and delicious!!
Instead of sugar, I used Splenda. Used applesauce in place of oil , egg substitute instead of eggs and almond milk instead of regular milk. Made six jumbo muffins for less calories and less fat.. Baked them for 30 minutes. Came out great!
Thank you for all your great recipes including this one. Every recipe of yours that I have made has been great.
Thank you
Great breakfast for babies ... and adults. Me, my husband, and my 18m baby loved it. Thank you!
These are soooo soooo good, I put the oats in food processor to make it finer, used 2 bananas, a small grated skin less granny apple, 2 tablespoons of unsweetened applesauce, topped some with choc chips to fool kids, others with dried cranberries and some with brow sugar. Definitely making these again!
Hi Barry,
These look great, I was wondering if the tablespoon measurements are metric, I noted that you can change to metric, which I love as that is what we use here in Australia but was unsure about the tablespoon.
Thanks Carol
A tablespoon for our purposes is 15 ml, a teaspoon is 5 ml. AFAIK that's a universal measurement...although I did have a set of measuring spoons that included a 20 ml tablespoon which I though was odd. I'd never encountered that before.
In Australia our tablespoon measurement is 20 ml and teaspoons are 5 ml making 4 teaspoons to a tablespoon, I'm not sure but I think it is the same in the UK and Europe. I have since made these and they were delicious.
