Awesome muffins, love the texture the oats add to these muffins. Very easy to make. Love the butterscotch chips in these. Mashed 1 1/2 bananas to make 3/4 cup. I got 11 nice sized muffins and they baked up at 400 for 14 minutes. Made for My Three Chefs.09 Thanks for sharing this recipe, its one I will be making again.
