Einkorn Banana Oat Muffins

Elevate your mornings with a batch of these Banana Einkorn Muffins! These beauties are packed with flavor and texture, boasting the natural sweetness of ripe bananas and the delightful subtle nutty einkorn flour undertones. Unlike regular muffins, they're soft, fluffy and have a delicate tender crumb, each bite explodes with ripe banana flavor perfectly complemented by a touch of warming spice.

Einkorn Muffins Overview

  • Warming spice: Sweet ripe bananas take the center stage; their natural sweetness is enhanced with a touch of warming spice which helps elevate the banana flavor. 

  • Buttery richness: The use of butter contributes to the richness that complements the sweet bananas and nutty einkorn flour, combine that with avocado oil and these muffins are not only flavorful but very moist and delicate. 

  • Cloud like softness: Imagine a muffin that melts in your mouth with each bite, almost like a cloud. 

  • Nutrient boost: Without compromising on flavor, we created these muffins with added nutrients from Einkorn flour, Sprouted oats, nutritional yeast, and use a refined sugar (coconut sugar) to make these the perfect morning treat. 

Ingredients you will need for these Einkorn Banana Muffins

  • Ripe bananas mashed

  • Butter (melted)

  • Avocado oil 

  • Eggs

  • Vanilla extract

  • Coconut sugar

  • Einkorn flour

  • Rolled oats- I prefer sprouted oats for the best nutrient absorption. 

  • Salt

  • Cinnamon- Just a touch really enhances the banana flavor

  • Baking powder

  • Baking soda

  • Nutritional yeast- (optional- for added vitamins) a deactivated yeast source rich in B vitamins and protein 

How to prevent einkorn muffins from sinking

Mixing Matters: Don’t overmix your batter, especially after the addition of flour. One the flour is added, mix until just combined. 

Leavening Power: old/expired baking powder won’t be as effective as fresh. These are responsible for the rise so make sure they are not expired. Each recipe is designed to be made with the right amount of leavening agent. Don’t skip or substitute baking powder or soda amounts. 

Batter Balance: Overfilling muffin liners can cause them to overflow and sink in the middle. Don’t fill more than 2/3-3/4 full.  

Oven Temperature/Stability: Preheat oven well before baking the muffins and be sure not to open the door during the baking process. A sudden drop in temperature can affect the rise. 

How to store Einkorn Banana Muffins

Room Temperature- Einkorn muffins can stay on the counter at room temperature for 1-2 days in an airtight container. 

Refrigerator- can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-4 days in an airtight container. Here is my favorite Cake/Cupcake Holder for storing in the fridge. I like this one over the individual cupcake holders because you can use it for both cakes and cupcakes as well as muffins. 

Freezer- My personal preference for storing is in the freezer in a Ziploc bag or food savor container for up to three months. Take muffins out of freezer 1-2 hours before serving.
