Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats (old fashion oats)
- 1½ cups all purpose flour
- ¼ cup brown sugar

Optional: ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped walnuts
Directions
Step 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Step 2. Combine dry ingredients into large bowl: rolled oats, all purpose flour, brown sugar, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, salt
Step 3. In a separate bowl, combine wet ingredients: milk, vegetable oil, egg, and mashed banana
Step 4. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and gently mix together.

Everyone’s ovens are a little different, so keep an eye on muffins especially toward the end of baking!
Cool in pan and then place on metal rack to finish cooling.
These muffins are great to enjoy fresh right or you can store them in the freezer and thaw as needed.
