I make a lot of variations of baked oatmeal muffins since I first started making them almost four years ago. I don’t always think about putting the new recipes here on the blog.  I mean, how many baked oatmeal muffins recipes does one need on a blog? Am I right?

The third time I made this particular variety, however, my 7-year-0ld daughter, Meghan, said, “Did you put this one on your blog yet? This is my favorite kind.”  I was pretty much forced to post this recipe, wouldn’t you agree?

Banana Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal Muffins

If you love the banana and chocolate combination, you will love these.  Besides the chocolate chips, the muffins are only sweetened with the banana.  2 full bananas give them a nice banana flavor that banana lovers will adore.

The reason I keep making baked oatmeal muffins so often is they are so easy and the kids love them. Banana Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal MuffinsYou mix everything together in one bowl.  You can even mix it together the night before and bake it in the morning.  Make a double batch so they last all week long and you have a portable baked oatmeal you can eat on the go.Banana Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal Muffins. Mix it together the night before and bake them in the morning. Just banana, oats, and eggs and you have a delicious healthy breakfast that is portable! Baked oatmeal to go. :)

Baked Oatmeal Muffins FAQs

Because I always get the same questions about these recipes. 🙂

  • Yes, these do work with a flax or chia egg if you would like to make them vegan.
  • I usually make them in these silicone baking cups.  The muffin cups pop right out easily and it makes for the easiest clean up.  You can also grease your muffin cups. I have not tried paper liners, but I imagine it would work also.
  • Yes, you can mix it together the night before and bake it in the morning.
  • The texture of these is meant to be creamy in the middle like baked oatmeal.  Cook them longer for a less creamy texture.  They will be more firm the second day.
  • These are best eaten within 5 days and stored in the refrigerator.

If you haven’t tried baked oatmeal muffins yet, it’s time to jump on the bandwagon!

    Oh my goodness, they are so ridiculously easy! And so quick to whip up if you just keep oats stocked up. I forgot choc chips so put mixed fruit instead, was awesome. They’re already all gone 1 day on. Def need to buy another muffin tray!! Thankyou for posting.

    Hi! I’m a nanny and I make these for the girls all the time now. I wanted them to be a little healthier (always the goal with toddlers) so I nixed the chocolate chips and added carrots, peanut butter, raisins, maple syrup, and chia seeds. They’re a hit!

      I’m so sorry the recipe wasn’t showing up properly for you. It calls for 2 ripe bananas.

    These were amazing! I doubled the recipe and then realized I only had half the rolled oats so used steel cut and still great! Hubbie, teenager and 2 year old approved!

        I’d love to try these, but I only have steel-cut oats at the moment. Do you know if the recipe will work if that’s all I have?

      • Maryea says

        December 16, 2017 at 10:12 am

        They will take a lot longer to cook. I’m not sure how it would work–I’m sorry I’m not more helpful. I’ve never tried using steel cut oats with this.

    Has anyone tried these using quick-cooking oats? I don’t have old fashioned on hand at the moment.

        For nutritional calculations, one muffin=one serving.

    Oh wow! Just made these and I just about ate the entire pan! I thought at first maybe I had put too much milk due to the consistency, but nope! Turned out perfectly. Thank you for sharing this recipe- I am 9 months pregnant and craving sweets at all hours. So nice to have a treat without any added sugars and flour. Great recipe, followed it to a T and they are just delicious!

    These are the best and most convenient muffins ever! The first time I made them, I made them a bit too wet. I had to bake mine a bit longer, but it was still super tasty! I can’t wait to play around with the recipe a bit more. I don’t know how you make yours look so pretty, though! Such lovely photographs.

    Awesome recipe, thanks for sharing! I’m glad your daughter reminded you to put the recipe on your blog 🙂

    These were a hit with my hubby, kids and mom! My mom even asked for a copy of the recipe. I made them yesterday and only 2 remain. Oh and they couldn’t have been easier with only one bowl needed. Meghan has good taste :).

    Great idea! I’m gonna try these. I love your banana date bars – they are have become a staple in our household. And the recipe is so versatile. This weekend I added grated carrots instead of the applesauce and they are delicious!!
