  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth.
  • Add rolled oats, milk, honey or maple syrup, vegetable oil, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon to the mashed bananas and mix well.
  • Optionally fold in the chocolate chips gently into the batter.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling them about two-thirds full.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
