Description
Soft, sweet, and swirled with cozy cinnamon flavor—these muffins taste like a cinnamon roll but in a lighter, protein-packed form. The creamy yogurt centers make every bite extra indulgent without the guilt!
Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana (mashed)
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¾ cup oat flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp Greek yogurt (for centers)
- ½ tsp cinnamon (for centers)
- 1 tsp honey (for centers)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with liners or lightly grease.
- In a bowl, mash banana until smooth. Whisk in Greek yogurt, egg, honey, and vanilla. Stir in oat flour, cinnamon, and baking powder until just combined.
- Spoon batter halfway into each muffin cup. Add ½ teaspoon of the creamy yogurt filling, then cover with more batter.
- Bake 15–18 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out mostly clean. Cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar on top before baking for a “cinnamon roll crust.” Swap banana with unsweetened applesauce for a milder flavor. Drizzle with a light glaze (Greek yogurt + honey) for extra cinnamon roll vibes.
