Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a rack in the lower third of the oven. Spray a mini muffin pan with cooking spray.
Step 2
Combine water and flaxseed meal in a bowl and let sit 5 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, whisk flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt together in a bowl and set aside.
Step 4
Mix thickened flaxseed, bananas, honey, yogurt, egg, applesauce, coconut oil, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Stir flour mixture into the banana mixture. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts.
Step 5
Use an ice cream scooper to scoop batter into the prepared muffin tin. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean but without overbaking, about 18 minutes.
Step 7
Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Freeze if desired.
