Why you’ll love this breakfast muffin recipe:
- Quick: Prep this savory muffin recipe in 10 minutes and have them ready in 30
- Healthier: Made with oats vs. flour, and dates for a natural sweetener, these muffin tops are healthier than your average muffin
- Versatile: Swap out the chocolate chips, add nuts, and/or dried fruit
Ingredient Notes:
Bananas: Bananas are rich in nutrients that can help aid in improving your blood sugar levels, digestive health, heart health, and the list goes on. They are full of antioxidants and potassium and are so easy to add into smoothies or baking.
Coconut Oil: Instead of using butter or other unhealthy fats, coconut oil is a great, healthier substitute. Coconut oil can also help give you energy, and can help with skin, hair, and oral health, and those are only a few benefits that this oil adds.
Dates: Dates are a great way to add sweetness to a recipe in a natural way. They’re super nutritious, high in fiber and antioxidants, and can help promote healthy brain function. I love eating dates even on their own! They’re so sweet and delicious.
How to make this savory muffin recipe:
- Preheat the oven to 350F, and line 2 baking trays with parchment paper.

Get Creative: This savory muffin recipe is an amazing base for ANY of your creations! Add ½ cup of frozen blueberries + lemon zest, OR ½ cup grated carrot with cinnamon + ginger, OR your favorite trail mixes OR rolled oats with the chopped chocolate. It is all up to you!!
My dates aren’t soft: If your dates aren’t soft, soak them in hot water for 3 – 5 minutes before using them.
