Maple-Oat Banana Mini Muffins

I baked some finger-food for a get together, and these muffins were a huge hit! The maple flavor was just right and the bananas kept the muffins insanely moist. The crumb topping was so delicious! People couldn't get enough of them, which was great. 

I made the muffins mini, and got about 24 muffins out of the batter. But mini is not necessary, the bigger the better right? ;)
