Vickys Banana & Apple Oat Muffins, GF DF EF SF NF

Preheat the oven to gas 4 / 180C / 350F and line a 6 hole muffin tin with paper cases

Mix the oil, apple sauce and mashed banana together in a large bowl

Stir in the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, xanthan gum if using and the choc chips until just combined

Taste the batter and decide if you’d like to add a bit of sugar. The apple sauce and banana is the only sweetener here so you may need to add a little granulated sugar to your taste

Spoon the batter evenly into each paper case then sprinkle the oats over the tops

Bake for 35 – 45 minutes until the muffins are risen and golden and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean and dry (This pic isn’t a good representation of how big the muffins will be. I didn’t have quite enough flour so my batter was less and I should have only filled 4 cases but…..)

Let cool in the tin for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely
