Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 350°. Grease and flour a 12-cup muffin pan; set aside. Whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, beat sugar and butter on medium-high speed of a hand mixer until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, and beat until smooth. Add buttermilk and vanilla, and then add dry ingredients; beat on low speed until just combined. Add oats, pecans, and bananas and stir until smooth.

Scoop about 1⁄3 cup batter into each muffin cup and bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20-25 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes, and then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining batter.
