Banana and Rolled Oat Muffins

I know there has been an influx of banana recipes lately – but hey when they are just $1.29 a kilo, who isn’t going to buy in bulk?  We again had some bananas which needed to be used up, and I was after a simple recipe the kids could help me with.  These Banana and Rolled Oat Muffins are always great to make with a little helper, there are lots of jobs for them from mixing the ingredients together, to putting the paper cases into the tin – the problem can then be getting them to leave the paper cases in the tin!

For this recipe I turned to taste.com.au.  It’s always such a trap visiting this site, whilst I go there with the best intention of searching for just one recipe, it’s just so easy to get sidetracked and end up with a whole list of things that I want to make (just now after visiting the site for the recipe link, I want to make today’s featured recipe – raspberry, chocolate & almond cake!).

It took all of 15 minutes to make these – admittedly it would be a lot quicker without a little helper, but where is the fun in that!  They tasted great, I liked the rolled oats mixed in, next time I think I’d add some chopped walnuts or pecans to give a little extra flavour.  Our Big Boy liked them (surprise surprise!) so I’ve stashed a few in the freezer for him.  Alas the next morning when I tried to bribe him with one of these muffins if he would let me cut his hair, he wouldn’t come to the party….
