Flourless Banana Mish-Mash Muffins

icandoit

These low-calorie, low-fat muffins are fun to make and guilt-free to enjoy. Applesauce replaces the traditional oil, and considerably reduces fat! Instead of coconut, you can substitute dried fruit, or finely sliced nuts. I also added cinnamon for some extra zest!


Ingredients1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup wheat bran or softened bran cereal
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup applesauce
1/4 cup blackstrap molasses
1/4 cup coconut
2 bananas
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoons baking powder
1 egg
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease muffin tins, or use muffin liners.


In large bowl, combine applesauce, 1 egg, molasses, bananas, and vanilla until smooth. Add cinnamon if desired. Mix in oats, bran cereal, baking powder, and salt. Fold in coconut (or dried fruit, sliced nuts, etc.). Fill muffin liners halfway with batter. Sprinkle with sugar or sugar substitute on top if desired.


Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until edges are light brown.

Hi Icandoit, I was turning pages in my cookbook and found this recipe you posted and tried it. I like it. I didn't have any bran cereal so I just used more oatmeal. I found that I could crumble up a few of them, heat them up in the microwave and use 4 tblp of light half and half and they make a very filling breakfast. So here's what someone called a bump to put the recipe back up.
