Ingredients

• 2 tbsp water
• 1.5 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp oil
• 1/3 cup oil
• Just under 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1 cup ripe mashed banana (about 3)
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 ¾ cups white flour
• ⅓ cups quick oats
• ⅝ cups raisins

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
2. In a small bowl, mix together 2 tbsp water, 1.5 tsp baking powder, and 1 tsp oil. Set aside.
3. In a separate bowl, mix together 1/3 cup oil and just under 1/2 cup maple syrup. Add the water-baking powder-oil mixture to this and mix well.
4. In another bowl, mix together mashed banana, 1/4 cup milk, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Add this to the oil-maple syrup mixture and mix well.
5. Gradually add 1 ¾ cups white flour, ⅓ cups quick oats, and ⅝ cups raisins to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
6. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
7. Bake for 23-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
