Ingredients

  • ½     cup golden raisins
  • ½     cup old-fashioned oats
  • ½     cup whole wheat flour
  • 1      teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼     teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ⅛    teaspoon ground allspice
  • ⅛    teaspoon baking soda
  • ⅛    teaspoon salt
  • 1     medium banana, peeled and mashed
  • 1     large egg
  • ¼    cup honey
  • 2     tablespoons canola oil
  • ⅓    cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
  • 1     teaspoon sugar

Instructions

 
1. Preheat oven to 425ºF on Convection Bake setting.
2. Line 6 muffin cups with paper liners or foil baking cups. Place raisins in a small bowl and cover with hot water. Let sit for 10 minutes, drain and reserve.
3. Combine oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, allspice, baking soda and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Make a well in the center and reserve.
4. Combine banana, egg, honey and oil in a small mixing bowl and stir to combine. Add to dry ingredients and mix with a spoon just until dry ingredients are moistened; batter will be lumpy. Add raisins and nuts; stir just to combine.
5. Fill prepared muffin cups with batter (fill almost to the top) and sprinkle tops with sugar. Bake until tops are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes.
6. Remove from muffin pan and cool on wire rack.
