I love muffins, any baked goods for that matter, but that has a negative effect on my waist line...so I took a muffin recipe that I found and made some modifications to make it healthier and more body friendly. Here's what I came up with. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups oats |
3/4 cup whole wheat flour |
1/4 cup flax seed |
2/3 cup splenda brown sugar blend |
2 teaspoons cinnamon |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon morton lite salt |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/3 cup egg beaters egg substitute |
4 bananas, mashed (approx 2 cups) |
1/3 cup no-sugar-added applesauce |
1/2 cup sunflower seeds |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Combine first 8 ingredients in large bowl.
3. Mix well.
4. Blend egg beaters, vinilla, banana, and apple sauce until smooth.
5. Add banana mixture to dry ingredients.
6. Stir until moist.
7. Add sunflower seeds.
8. Use muffin pan with medium size muffin cups, spray with cooking spray.
9. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full.
10. Bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until tops spring back when lightly touched.
