Banana Oatmeal Protein muffins

I'm been so lazy lately getting a healthy breakfast in. I either have been skipping it all together or drinking coffee and a piece of toast and calling it a day. I finally broke down and realized if I wanted to eat better throughout the day I probably should start with breakfast.  This is for every person on the go who needed that extra 5 minutes of shut eye (especially post day light savings) in the morning.
