Oatmeal Muffins With Only 1 Egg
You know what makes me really proud about this recipe? It’s not the fact that it’s delicious, addictive and actually healthy. It’s the fact that I managed to use only one egg here. My soul always dies a little when I use eggs for baking. I don’t know why. Like 4 eggs to make muffins? And don’t get me started on the recipes that only use only yolk or egg whites. Which I know are available in the US, but I haven’t seen them in Europe yet. I honestly hope they don’t come here. It always also made me wonder: What happened to the yolks? Did someone eat them all and get super high cholesterol? Or did they throw them out? Did they put them in soups like this one?
These breakfast muffins have a great banana flavor, but not over the top banana flavor. They’re also nutty thanks to the almond butter and perfectly sweet (but not overly sweet!). I used only one banana and it made 6 muffins, so you know what to expect. Now let’s see how to make these healthy banana muffins.
