Notes

MEASUREMENTS:
I always recommend using a kitchen weighing scale and using weighted measurements. This will result in a more accurate process and your cake will come out perfectly.
 
TIPS:
    • Use Ripe Bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
    • When blending the old-fashioned oats, make sure to achieve a fine consistency.
    • Customize with Optional Extras: Experiment with different combinations to find your favorite! Read blog post for ideas.
    • Preheat the Oven: Ensure that your oven is fully preheated before placing the muffins inside.
    • Underbake your muffins: You want to slightly underbake your muffins – this is what makes them soft and fluffy on the inside.
