I had no idea that just a banana and some oatmeal made a muffin. It’s so easy and they were quite yummy. You could add some cinnamon and a pinch of sugar if you want more a banana cake flair.

Instead of adding sugar to sweeten these, I used a bit of honey on top of each to sweeten them and it also helped to make the coconut stick.

My sweetie enjoyed these.

Ok, ok… well, she ate most of the jelly beans, but that’s all right.
