Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease or line a muffin tin for 12 muffins then set aside.
In the bowl of a blender, add the wet ingredients first (bananas, milk, maple syrup and peanut butter). Blend until smooth. Next layer the dry ingredients (rolled oats, cinnamon, baking powder, soda, and salt). Blend on high until oats are broken down and a smooth batter forms. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand.
Pour the batter into the muffin tin filling each about 3/4 of the way full. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges. Allow to cool completely then serve and enjoy! Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 3 months.

Notes

*If you blend too long the batter may become hot which will melt the chocolate chips when you stir them in. To prevent this you can refrigerate or freeze the chocolate chips (prior to adding to the muffins) or just be careful not to blend for too long.
