Vegan Sweet Potato Banana Oatmeal Muffins

Vegan Sweet Potato Banana Oatmeal Muffins perfect for kids! Made with gluten-free and nut-free ingredients. No added sugar besides banana and they only require 5 key ingredients to whip up.

One of the most requested types of recipes here on the blog are the ones for kids and babies!

I have shared a few kid-friendly recipes over the past few months, but I don’t usually make many recipes dedicated to kids and babies. Ezra has always eaten the same foods that we eat. There isn’t “ezra food” then “our food”. I of course try and limit his sugar intake, so when I make banana breads and such, I will omit sugars or just use less of them.

But for all my mamas and papas looking for a super easy muffin recipe for your kids to have for breakfast or a snack, these Sweet Potato Banana Oatmeal Muffins are it!

These vegan and nut-free muffins have sweet potato in them, are naturally sweetened with banana and I add in some gluten-free rolled oats.

I love making these on a Sunday or earlier in the week so Ezra has a snack ready to go, and I slice it up into smaller pieces and he will feed it to himself. I often add some nut butter on top too to make them a little more filling.

Let’s run through the key ingredients needed to make these:

• Bananas – you’ll need about 2 large bananas. The more freckled and ripe, the better!
• Sweet potato puree – or you can use pumpkin puree. I buy this in can form at the store. Just look for no added sugar and organic when possible!
• Gluten-free rolled oats
• Gluten-free oat flour
• Optional add-in’s: chocolate chips, nuts, berries and some creamy nut butter for on top.
