Recipe: Simple Oat & Berry Snack Muffins!

The search is over people! I had been hunting for the perfect snack recipe that's great to have before a workout, as an afternoon pick-me-up, or even late at night when I get really hungry but want to avoid the chocolate stash. We all know that struggle, right?

Healthy and reliable snacks can be hard to come by and we don't always have enough time in the day to put something together. But these muffins are super easy to make and you don't need a lot of ingredients. They're protein packed to keep you full as well as give you energy. And did I mention that they taste amazing?

Ingredients: (makes 7-8) 

2 ripe bananas

2 cups rolled oats

1 egg, beaten, 

3/4 cup (60ml) milk

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1 scoop vanilla protein powder

1 cup frozen (or fresh) berries

Preheat oven to 180*c

In a medium sized bowl, mash the bananas then stir in oats. 

Add the egg, milk and vanilla then stir to combine. 

Then add the berries and mix well. 

Spoon the mixture into greased muffin tins, filling right to the brim. 

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through. 

Leave to cool, then remove from tins and enjoy!

I seriously love this recipe and everyone I've shared it with has become a fan too, which makes me happy! They are budget and kid friendly as well, so it doesn't cost a lot to have healthy snacks ready to go. These are also great for those mornings where you're rushed for breakfast and want to keep your eating on track.

Let me know if you try these, or what some of your healthy snacks are!
