Strawberry Banana Oat Bran Muffins

Baking· Sweet & Snacky

2 Apr

Strawberry Banana Oat Bran Muffins are a delicious fiber filled breakfast or snack. Quick and easy to make with a handful of berries and just one banana!

Sometimes it’s nice to be able to grab a muffin as breakfast or a quick snack during the day. My family absolutely loves these Strawberry Banana Oat Bran Muffins.

These quick and easy muffins have a hint of banana and strawberry in every bite. Oat bran is high in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, so these are a great way to start your day!

What You’ll Need to make Strawberry Banana Oat Bran Muffins

  • Flour – We use all purpose flour but any flour can be used. Whole wheat flour is great too!

  • Oat Bran – If you don’t have oat bran, you can substitute any kind of bran or even oatmeal.

  • Brown Sugar – We like the deeper flavor that brown sugar brings but you can substitute the same amount of white sugar instead.

  • Milk – Whatever milk you have on hand is fine for these, skim, 1%, 2% or whole. Also, canned, shelf stable evaporated milk may also be substituted.

  • Butter – We use regular salted butter, but unsalted butter may also be used.

  • Pantry Staples – Baking powder, salt, vanilla extract.

  • Egg – One large egg.

  • Fruit – One ripe banana and 1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries (or blueberries!)

How to make Strawberry Banana Oat Bran Muffins

These muffins don’t require any sort of mixer or hand blender. A masher (or a whisk) and a spoon to mix it all together is all you need.

The less the batter is mixed, the better the muffins are. Simple and delicious!

Line 9-12 muffin tin cups with paper liners or spray generously with cooking spray. Set aside.

Add the flour, oat bran, brown sugar, baking powder and salt to a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.

Divide the mixture evenly between the prepared muffin cups.

We like the size of the muffins when 9 muffin tins are used but you can make up to 12.
