Banana Oatmeal Muffins - No Eggs- Frugal City!

I made these Oatmeal Banana Muffins for my breakfasts this week using some overripe bananas that were on their last leg.  I created this recipe using my No Eggs Pumpkin Bread recipe as a guide.   I wasn't sure how the recipe would turn out but I don't always have eggs so I wanted a recipefor muffins that didn't use eggs. Woo hoo!  These are great!  Perfectly moist like banana bread.  Yummy and fantastic! This recipe uses only a few ingredients; has a minimal amount of sugar in it, has oats in it, and no eggs.  How can that be a bad thing, right? Here's how I made Banana Oatmeal Muffins-No Eggs AT HOME MY WAY: Banana Oatmeal Muffins - No Eggs 1 1/4 cup flour (all purpose) 1/2 cup quick oats 1/2 cup sugar (I used white, but brown sugar would work) 1 teaspoon baking SODA 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup oil (I used olive oil.) 3 Tablespoons water 2 very overripe bananas (mashed) Instructions: Preheat ove...

Banana Pudding Rice Krispie Treats

  Last night I made Homemade Pizza for supper.  It was so wonderful!  I also tried out a new recipe that I found at the  Sweet Southern Blue blog for Banana Pudding Rice Krispie Treats .   WHAT????  I know that sounds like a surprising combination.  I couldn't discover a wonderful snack idea like that without giving it a try.  You see, I love everything banana, the "real" banana recipes like Banana Nut Bread Baked Oatmeal , or plain muffins with mashed banana, Perfect Pancakes with bananas or even Tin Can Banana Bread , but also any "fake tasting" banana treats like Laffy Taffy or Banana Moon Pies.  Yes... I do LOVE those huge-a-mongo triple decker Banana Moon Pies!  These treats tasted very similar to Banana Moon Pies.  They were easy to make and a fun snack to offer when you are looking for something different.  I think it also might be fun to try other pudding mixes combined with rice ...

Banana Nut Bread Baked Oatmeal

Update to this picture made 5/9/17.  Also -  Love making this in my big muffin cups now!  Perfect service size and easy to eat on the run. I made another one of Lynn (from Lynn's Kitchen Adventures ) wonderful Baked Oatmeal recipes this morning.  Lynn calls hers Banana Baked Oatmeal . This is truly delicious!   She is such an inspiration!  I made mine with bananas, chopped walnuts and cinnamon and it tasted just like a piece of banana bread. (Lynn bakes hers with chocolate chips, which would be equally as delicious!)  I keep overripe, thick chunks of banana in my freezer for making smoothies and I just thawed some banana chunks in my microwave, drained off the water, and mashed them for using in this recipe.  My kitchen smelled delicious this morning and breakfast was a definite treat!  So easy and so inexpensive.  Mmmmmm!  It reminded me of my Tin Can Banana Bread .  If you want...
