This portable breakfast is packed with oats, bananas, applesauce, and kale and fiber, which turns the batter a fun green color.

Ingredients

    Muffins
  • 2 cups (500 mL) old-fashioned oats (see cook's tip)
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) baking powder
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) baking soda
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) salt
  • 8 scoops Enrichables Kale & Fiber
  • ⅓ cup (75 mL) applesauce
  • ⅓ cup (75 mL) maple syrup
  • 2   extra-ripe large bananas
  • 2   eggs
  • ¼ cup (60 mL) canola oil
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract
  •  Oil for spritzing
    Topping
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) brown sugar
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) ground cinnamon

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Add the oats to the Deluxe Cooking Blender. Replace and lock the lid. Press the wheel to select the PULSE setting and blend on setting 6 until the oats have the texture of flour, about 10 seconds.

  2. Add the remaining ingredients to the blender in the order they’re listed. Replace and lock the lid. Press the wheel to start the CUSTOM BLEND setting and blend on speed 3 for 30–45 seconds, pausing and scraping down the sides of the blender with a spatula halfway through blending.

  3. Spray the wells of the Muffin Pan with oil using the Kitchen Spritzer. Pour the batter evenly into the wells of the pan.

  4. For the topping, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the muffins.

  5. Bake for 20–22 minutes, or until the Cake Tester & Releaser comes out clean when inserted in the centers.

  6. Let the muffins stand for 5 minutes before removing from the pan.
