Everyone needs a little brain food to kickstart their day!

If you're off to work or school, don't forget that a nutritious breakfast makes all the difference. It just so happens these banana oat muffins are just that! Without being too sweet, they'll provide whole grains, potassium, protein, and healthy fats to give you energy and brainpower as you settle into your morning.

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 325F. Spray 2 muffin tins (recipe yields 20 muffins) with cooking spray or line with paper baking cups.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut oil and maple syrup until well combined. Add eggs and mix well. Mix in the mashed bananas, milk, baking soda, vanilla extract, salt, and cinnamon.
3. Add flour and oats to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
4. Divide batter evenly between muffin cups, filling each cup about two-thirds full. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with a small a pinch each of oats, then bake muffins for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
