Seeded banana muffins

Banana muffins nutritionally boosted up with the goodness of seeds and oats. Bake ahead for a breakfast or a snack on the go. The vinegar in the recipe reacts with the baking soda, creating a significant lift and airy texture. It also interferes with gluten development, so the muffins have a moister and softer, delicate texture.
