Ingredients

  • 2 large bananas see notes
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • ¾ cup pitted whole dates about 8-10 dates depending on the size
  • 2 cups gluten free oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.  Grease and flour a muffin or cupcake tin, set aside.
  • In a blender or food processor add the bananas, almond milk, eggs and dates.  Give it a quick blend (about 10 to 15 seconds) to break of the dates and bananas.
  • Add the oats, baking soda and spices to the blender.  Blend for a full 1 to 2 minutes until ingredients are incorporated.  The batter should be pourable but thick, you'll need a spatula to get the remaining batter at the bottom.
  • Fill muffin tin ¾ of the way and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.

Notes

  • Think 'Banana Bread' for the oldness of the bananas.  Dark and spotted or the peels can even be completely turned a different color.  If the bananas are still ripe for the eating, wait a few more days (or add another ¼ cup almond milk)
  • If you're blender or food processor is not so awesome, try soaking the dates in super hot water for about 5 minutes.  Strain before adding to the blender.
