Easy, flourless, Low-FODMAP Oatmeal Banana Chocolate Chip Mini Muffin recipe. Gluten-free and good for your gut!

Ingredients

Scale

    • 1 & 1/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 2 large eggs, room temperature
    • 1 cup (225g) mashed ripe banana (about 2 medium bananas)
    • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
    • 3 tablespoons oil (canola oil, avocado oil, melted coconut oil)
    • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    • 1/2 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
    • Baking spray

Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and coat a 24-cup mini muffin pan with baking spray (I used a silicone one, and placed on a baking sheet)
    • Pulse your rolled oats in a blender until finely ground
    • Add baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, then pulse to combine
    • One at a time, add your eggs, then banana, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla
    • Pulse between ingredients briefly, then puree until smooth
    • Mix in chocolate chips by hand and pour into the muffin cups, filling to the rim. They don’t rise very much
    • Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 15 to 17 minutes. As ovens vary, check yours to ensure they don’t overcook
    • Allow to cool in the pan on a rack until just able to lift out, then cool completely on a wire rack
    • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 days (if they last!)

Notes

  • Although this recipe has not been lab tested, a single serving should be low-FODMAP based on the ingredients (using available FODMAP data at time of testing)
  • For bananas, one low-FODMAP serving of ripe banana is 35g.  See more about bananas and FODMAPs in the header above, or in my TikTok videos!
  • Yield 24 muffins, 1-2 per serving
  • Try with walnuts or pecans instead of chocolate if you prefer
