Healthy Oatmeal Blender Muffins Base Recipe

Use this oatmeal blender muffins base recipe to craft ANY flavor of healthy breakfast muffins that you like. Get creative with YOUR favorite flavorings and mix-ins!

Rather than refined flours, we’re using rolled oats as the main ingredient for all of these flourless blender muffins recipes. Oats are a whole grain and a far more nutritious alternative, rich in slow-digesting complex carbs, dietary fiber, and even some protein. Plus, they’re naturally gluten free!* (See note below recipe about gluten sensitivities.)

Besides the oats, there are a few other staple ingredients in these oatmeal blender muffins that are non-negotiable: the eggs, baking powder, and baking soda. Unfortunately, that means these breakfast muffins can’t be made vegan—you need the eggs! But, everything else is totally customizable.

You can choose from a variety of fruit puree options, use whichever liquid/sticky sweetener you like, you choose the type of nut or seed butter, and use whichever kind of milk suits your lifestyle. Plus, there are TONS of different mix-ins you can add to your oatmeal muffins to change up the flavors. One basic muffin recipe, infinite easy breakfast possibilities!

How to Make Healthy Muffins without Flour

Whichever flavor of oatmeal blender muffins you’re craving, they’re all just as easy to make: blend the batter, add the mix-ins, fill your muffin tins, and bake! We’ll walk through the process together so you can see for yourself, and it’s the same process for any flavor of oatmeal muffins you choose to make.

I’m showing you how to make healthy muffins without flour using one of my FAVORITE breakfast muffins flavors—my flourless peanut butter banana oatmeal chocolate chip muffins recipe! (Yes, it’s a mouthful…but they’re basically blender banana oatmeal muffins with a peanutty, chocolaty twist.)

#1 BLEND your Oatmeal Blender Muffins Batter Ingredients

First things first, grab your blender and get your oven preheated to 375°F (190°C). These oatmeal blender muffins only take about 10 minutes to prep, so they’ll be ready to bake by the time your oven’s warmed up!

Any old blender should do the trick for these recipes, you may just need to scrape down the sides a bit as you go. Personally, I made all of these blender muffins in my trusty Vitamix blender, which is pretty heavy-duty. Or, you can also use a food processor—whichever you prefer! 

(TIP: I actually recommend using a food processor when making prune puree for your fruit mash, as well as when making blender muffins with prune puree, like my healthy lemon poppy seed muffins recipe. Prunes can be pretty sticky, and blending them can be a bit of a challenge!)

Into your blender, add your base oatmeal muffins batter ingredients—but don’t add your mix-ins just yet! The amount of milk you’ll need can vary, so start with less at first and add more as you go as needed. 

For my peanut butter banana muffins example recipe, I add mashed banana as my fruit mash, rolled oats, eggs, honey as my liquid/sticky sweetener, peanut butter for my nut butter, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and I used almond milk as my milk of choice to keep my breakfast muffins dairy free.

Then, just blend it all up until you’ve got a nice, thick batter without any clumps! If it’s too thick or your blender is sticking, add a bit more milk to adjust the consistency. 

#2 MIX IN your Mix-Ins of Choice

Once you’ve got a smooth, thick batter, mix in those mix-ins! (See what I did there?)

You can transfer your oatmeal blender muffins batter to a bowl to do this if you prefer, but I don’t bother. I just stir those mix-ins right into the blender and spare myself washing an extra dish!

Then, my batter is ready to scoop straight from the blender and into my muffin tin. 

#3 Portion into Muffin Tin

Before filling up your muffin tin, make sure it’s greased well or sprayed with cooking spray so your breakfast muffins don’t get stuck! Portion the batter into your prepared muffin tin, filling each cavity about ⅔ full. 

To make portioning easier on me, I use a ¼-cup ice cream scoop—but it doesn’t need to be exact! Just know that each of these recipes yielded 12-14 blender muffins for me, depending on how much batter I loaded into my muffin tins. 

(It will also depend on the kinds of mix-ins you’re using, how heaping your ingredient measurements are, etc. Doesn’t hurt to have a second muffin tin ready just in case!)

#4 Bake, Cool & Devour!

Now, all that’s left to do is pop those bad boys in the oven for 18-20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean!

After baking, leave your blender muffins in the tin to cool for about 15 minutes before removing them. 

Then, they’re ready to serve fresh for a healthy breakfast or nourishing snack! Or, package into airtight containers for a meal prep breakfast and store in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Traditionally, banana bread is made with refined flours and sugars, and it can be hard to stop eating… But, these blender oatmeal muffins are perfectly pre-portioned and made with wholesome, fuel filled ingredients!

Low in added sugars, rich in healthy fats, and with plenty of slow-digesting carbs to keep your full and satisfied. The ripe, sweet bananas paired with crave-ably creamy cashew butter and crunchy walnuts makes these healthy banana nut muffins truly IRRESISTIBLE!

You can enjoy these flourless blueberry oatmeal muffins as a healthy breakfast or snack that you feel good about eating.

Less sugar means these healthy blueberry muffins are more satisfying and won’t send your blood sugar skyrocketing. And, the complex carbs and fiber from the whole grain oats provide lasting energy to get you through the morning.

Plus, this is a naturally gluten free blueberry muffins recipe since oats are the main ingredient! (Just sure to use certified gluten free oats for 100% gluten free blender muffins if you have a gluten sensitivity or intolerance.)

Have you ever wished pumpkin season could be a year-round event? I definitely have—and with this healthy pumpkin oatmeal muffins recipe, it can!

All the comforting, pumpkin-y goodness of a sweet holiday treat, but nutritious enough to enjoy anytime. With plenty of energizing complex carbs and a dose of satiating protein, these flourless pumpkin muffins are perfect for a healthy breakfast on the go or a satisfying snack!

Using real pumpkin puree and applesauce provides natural sweetness and flavor, while also keeping your healthy pumpkin oatmeal muffins deliciously moist. They’re hearty and luscious like a sweet slice of pumpkin bread, but far lower in added sugars, and with NO refined sugars.

Healthy Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins + Easy 2 Ingredient Glaze

You won’t believe how sneaky these healthy lemon poppy seed muffins are… Not only are they flourless oatmeal blender muffins with NO refined flours or sugars, but they’re also hiding a sneaky super food ingredient: PRUNES!

Say whaaat?! Trust me, the prunes’ natural sweetness and subtle tartness pairs perfectly with the tangy bite of citrus in this gluten free lemon poppy seed muffins recipe. And, all of that satisfying, natural sweetness means you can start with less honey in this recipe and sweeten to taste.

Best of all, prunes pack a sneaky boost of fiber into these healthy lemon poppy seed muffins, along with loads of bone-building nutrients! With their rich potassium, magnesium, and vitamin K content, prunes are a super-fruit when it comes to bone health. Studies have shown that prunes not only prevent bone loss, but they can also increase bone mineral density.

Comforting, nutritious, and a scrumptiously simple meal prep breakfast idea. For an extra bit of indulgence, finish off these gluten free lemon poppy seed muffins with a drizzle of my easy 2 ingredient glaze!

Healthy Apple Oatmeal Muffins with Chopped Dates

I’m a blueberry muffins fanatic at heart, but these healthy apple oatmeal muffins turned out to be my FAVORITE of the bunch. They’ve got real apple flavor from the applesauce and chopped apples, along with a sweet cinnamon-y fragrance that smells SO good—and tastes even better!

Not only does the applesauce add all-natural flavor and sweetness, but it also keeps these gluten free apple cinnamon muffins perfectly moist and luscious. With tender, baked-in apple pieces and sweet, chewy chopped dates in every bite, they’re apple-solutely irresistible!

They’re equally delicious when fresh or even days after baking, but I highly recommend enjoying these apple cinnamon oatmeal muffins WARM. Seriously, they taste like like indulgent apple pie meets comforting bowl of oatmeal—all baked into healthy blender muffins for breakfast!

Mysteriously Blue Healthy SWEET POTATO Muffins with Shredded Coconut?!

These mysterious blue blender muffins look AND taste like festive oatmeal cupcakes of some sort…but they’re secretly fuel-filled!

And, thanks to its anti-oxidizing purple pigments, my oatmeal blender muffins turned out this all-natural blue color!

If you’ve never come across purple sweet potato, it IS a real thing—and it’s pretty much the same in taste and texture as regular ol’ sweet potato. So, you can totally make these flourless sweet potato oatmeal muffins with regular sweet potato mash instead of purple! They’ll still be just as comforting, naturally sweet, and nutritious.

But, if you can find purple sweet potato, it’s a great way to make your breakfast blender muffins more fun! And you’ll be sneaking in some superfood antioxidants that many of us don’t get enough of in our diets.
