Tips:

  • Choose the right type of steel-cut oats: For muffins, use regular or quick-cooking steel-cut oats. Avoid using instant or pre-cooked steel-cut oats, as they may not give the desired texture.
  • Soak the oats overnight: Soaking the oats overnight in water or milk helps to soften them and reduce the cooking time. This step is optional, but it is highly recommended for a better texture and flavor.
  • Use ripe bananas: Ripe bananas add natural sweetness and moisture to the muffins. Make sure to use bananas that are well-ripened with brown spots on the skin.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and no streaks of flour remain.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: Baking the muffins at a high temperature (400°F) for a short period of time helps to create a crispy outer crust and a moist, tender interior.

Conclusion:

Steel-cut oat muffins are a delicious, nutritious, and versatile breakfast option that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their hearty texture, sweet banana flavor, and wholesome ingredients, these muffins are a great way to start your day. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weekday breakfast or a special treat for the weekend, these muffins are sure to satisfy your cravings.
