Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup old fashioned oats
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, combine the eggs, vegetable oil, and milk. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Slice the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Fold in the grated zucchini, carrots, and mashed banana.
