Emily and her girls were coming over for a mid morning Sunday play date so Syd and I baked up these healthy muffins to snack on. They were delicious! The recipe should make a dozen muffins, I made 10 and a dozen mini ones for the girls. They were low fat with no oil – so I find they are only good for a few days, not that there were many left!!
Ingredients:
1 ½ cups all purposed flour
1 cup oatmeal
½ cup sugar
1 ½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 egg
¾ cup 1% milk
1/3 cup applesauce
1 tsp vanilla
3 mashed ripe bananas
1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Directions:
Combine all of the dry ingredients in a separate bowl. In a separate big mixing bowl (I always use my kitchen aid mixer), mash bananas. Add in egg, milk, applesauce and vanilla and mix well. Stir in dry ingredients just until blended. Stir in chocolate chips. Pour into 12 paper lined or greased muffin tins. Bake at 400 degrees for 18-20 minutes. Enjoy!
