Banana Oat Muffins

...plus, they're low fat!  I adapted this from a normal muffin recipe that had waaay too much sugar and fat in it.



Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups White Flour Bleached
  • 1 cup Quaker Oats
  • 1/3 cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • Egg
  • 3/4 cup Skim Milk
  • 1/4 cup Plain Low Fat Yogurt
  • 1/4 cup Apple Sauce Unsweetened
  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Bananas-mashed
  • 1/3 cup Mini Chocolate Chips (optional)

Beat egg slightly. Add milk, yogurt, apple sauce, and vanilla.  Stir in bananas.  Combine remaining ingredients and then add to wet mixture.  Stir until just combined. Grease or line muffin tins, pour in batter, then bake at 400F for 16-18 minutes.  Immediately remove to cooling rack.

Makes 16 muffins, at 122 calories each.  Without the chocolate chips, it's only 102 calories each.
