Banana Oatmeal Muffins

Delicious Banana Oatmeal Muffins!

These muffins are a favorite in our house — simple, wholesome, and actually filling. One of the biggest things I’ve learned in my recovery is that when I give my body enough good, healthy food, I’m far less likely to fall into overeating later. These muffins check all the boxes for me: nutritious, satisfying, and non-triggering for me.

Here’s my go-to recipe:

Banana Oatmeal Muffins

4 eggs

1 banana

½ cup unsweetened applesauce

2 cups oats

½ cup blueberries or raisins

(I personally add a few carefully-chosen dark chocolate chips instead of blueberries — it’s not a trigger for me, but everyone’s recovery is different, so choose what works for you.)

Mix everything together, spoon into muffin cups, and bake at 350° for 20 minutes.

Calories:

• About 135 each with blueberries

• About 160 with raisins

These make a great breakfast, snack, or grab-and-go option when you want something healthy that won’t set off cravings. Choosing foods that nourish your body — and fit your personal plan — is one of the best ways to support long-term recovery.
