Gluten Free Pumpkin Banana Muffins

The first time I made these banana pumpkin oatmeal muffins, I ended up baking four batches in a single week because my family couldn’t stop devouring them! Soft, fluffy, and perfectly sweet, they're a great healthier treat for fall. Gluten-free, nut-free, and dairy-free-friendly, they’re the perfect make-ahead breakfast or snack for the whole family.

Notes

Storage : Store leftover muffins in an airtight container or sealable bag at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the fridge for up to two weeks. You can also freeze cooked and cooled muffins for up to 3 months! Thaw in the fridge overnight. Then, serve your muffins cold, or warm them for a few seconds in the microwave.
