Healthy Peanut Butter Banana Muffins (Vegan)

Undetectably healthy peanut butter banana muffins that are oil free and packed with vegan protein! Completely vegan, dairy free, and low in sugar, these peanut butter muffins make the best healthy breakfast, snack, or treat for both kids and adults!

The best healthy muffin recipe

I’m currently so obsessed with these peanut butter chocolate chip banana muffins.

They’re so incredibly moist and fluffy, yet made with the simplest ingredients (we’re talking only 7 pantry staple vegan ingredients). Plus, these ingredients are nutrient-dense.

With a base of oats, which are full of fiber, flaxseeds (high in omega-3 fats), and completely oil free with the use of peanut butter (which contains a decent amount of magnesium!), these banana muffins are an undeniably feel-good snack.

Not to mention, these peanut butter muffins are entirely vegan, dairy free, gluten free, low in sugar, and packed with vegan protein. However, they taste anything but.

In fact, both kids and adults will absolutely love these banana and peanut butter muffins. They make the most wonderful healthy breakfast in a yogurt bowl or a quick grab and go snack that you can meal prep at the beginning of the week!

Ingredients to make healthy peanut butter banana muffins vegan

These healthy peanut butter banana muffins are naturally vegan and gluten free, so you don’t need to worry about making any swaps!

What’s more, these healthy muffins are made with the simplest ingredients:

• Oats (or oat flour)
• Coconut sugar
• Banana
• Peanut Butter
• Dairy free milk (oat milk, coconut milk, almond milk)
• Flaxseed
• Chocolate chips

Now, I also like to add in a little extra protein to my vegan muffins, so I add in a few scoops of unflavored pea protein. Totally optional, but the nutritional count for these muffins includes it!

Don’t worry: you totally won’t taste the pea protein!

Make your own oat flour and oat milk for these vegan banana muffins

Another reason why I’m so obsessed with these healthy vegan peanut butter banana muffins is that the ingredients are so incredibly affordable, pantry friendly, and you can even make them yourself!

I highly recommend making your own oat flour, like I do in these muffins, as well as making a homemade oat milk.

These muffins are extraordinarily easy, so I wanted to make sure that they’re accessible to all.

If you do choose to make your own oat flour, I have a second (and slightly easier method) for making these peanut butter muffins, so keep reading!

How to make peanut butter banana muffins healthy

Making vegan peanut butter banana muffins is so incredibly easy! I have two methods: one for if you are purchasing your oat flour, and the second if you are making your own oat flour.

If you are purchasing your oat flour:

1. Whisk all of the dry ingredients together.

If you are making your own oat flour:

1. Pulse the oats in a food processor until it becomes a fine flour.
2. Then add in the remaining dry ingredients, and pulse for 10 seconds to combine.

It’s that easy! Once you have your dry ingredients combine, then we’ll set it aside, and fold together all of the wet ingredients: banana, peanut butter, dairy free milk, flaxseed “eggs,” and vanilla extract.

Then fold in the dry ingredients and combine until completely mixed.

Sprinkle in the chocolate chips, and mix again.

Then scoop the batter into the muffin tins- this will make about 24 minutes, but you can also make extra large muffins as well! Bake and serve!

Can I freeze these peanut butter chocolate chip muffins?

Absolutely! I recommend after making these peanut butter chocolate chip muffins, enjoy them immediately or store them in an airtight container to be placed in the freezer for up to 1 month.

Alternatively, if you want to enjoy these healthy vegan muffins throughout the week, simply store them in the fridge (in an airtight container of course!) for up to 5 days.

I hope you love these healthy vegan peanut butter banana muffins as much as I do! If you make them, let me know down below in the comments section, as well as giving them a rating so that others can see!
