Low calorie muffins are one of my favorite snacks! It’s no secret I’m a muffin lover and if you’ve been following for awhile, there’s a good chance you’ve tried a muffin or two from this blog. They’re an easy way to enjoy a perfectly portioned treat without going overboard.

Balancing lighter treats with healthy food is something I promote with my clients. In fact, many of them are surprised when I tell them not to restrict foods they love. When you restrict, you’re more likely to binge, feel like a failure and throw in the towel.

Weight loss is about making peace with all foods, learning the right skills to balance foods you enjoy and having the right attitude and mindset to keep going even when you’re not eating perfect.

News flash! No one is perfect and if you’re always striving for perfection, you’ll be less consistent. Making lighter treats like these skinny banana oat muffins are an example of how you can have your treats and lose weight too!

Healthy Banana Oat Muffins

Made flourless with gluten free oats, no added sugar or oil and naturally sweetened with bananas, they’re a perfectly delicious treat for just 123 calories!

Greek yogurt adds protein to the muffins to balance the healthy carbs. No sugar is added to this recipe. As long as you use very very ripe bananas, the muffins will be sweet enough. You can always add a tablespoon or two of honey or maple syrup if it’s not sweet enough for you.

What You Need

  • Gluten Free Rolled Oats

How To Make Banana Muffins

It’s so easy! Add all the ingredients except the chocolate chips to a blender or a food processor and mix until fully blended. Add the batter to a prepared muffin tin. I used muffin liners for easy cleanup!

Stir in the chocolate chips then fill each muffin cavity three-quarters of the way full and bake! I added a few dairy free chocolate chips to mine, but you could easily add other toppings like raisins, seeds, chopped nuts, etc. to this banana muffin recipe. It’s very versatile!

How To Store Your Muffins

The muffins are made with Greek yogurt so they will need to be stored in the refrigerator or freezer. You can refrigerate them up to 10 days in a container or up to 60 days in the freezer.

I love meal prepping two batches at a time so I can freeze a batch for future snacking. Hope you enjoy them!

    I made these and everyone loved them! They needed an extra banana and I put some salt in to help with the flavor, plus it really did need honey, but they were gone so quickly I made more yesterday!

      That’s great you liked them! I don’t like things overly sweet and everyone’s tastebuds are different. Make sure your bananas are super super ripe – like black ripe. This will make them sweeter and you shouldn’t need honey, but you certainly can add it if you like.

    Love this recipe. Was looking for something quick and healthy to make for morning tea of a lazy weekend. This turned out perfectly.
    I added a pinch of cinnamon, and substituted yogurt for Greek yogurt. Will definitely be making this again Only change I would do next time is not use the blender, but mask with a spoon instead, as it took some time to get the mixture out as it was quite sticky. Thank you for super healthy recipe!

      Glad you enjoyed the recipe Sam. Fyi – the recipe already called for Greek yogurt but cinnamon is genius for adding more flavor!

    Excited to make these, especially since it’s low in calories. They don’t sell non fat greek yoghurt in my country. Can I substitute for fat free plain yoghurt or something else maybe?

      Fat free or low fat plain yogurt will definitely work.

    These were yummy, easy to make.
    I added walnuts and some mini peanut butter chipits. I did use freshly sapped maple syrup too.
    I did start the oven at 425 for 3 minutes, then turned down to 400 for the remainder of time. This recipe made a 12 count standard muffin pan.
