Super Low Calorie Banana (No Sugar Added) Muffin Recipe!

Makes 30 "Mini" Muffins at 19 calories apiece OR 10 "Larger' Muffins at 57 Calories apiece

Ingredients:
3/4 cup skim milk
1 egg white
2 ripe bananas
1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp Whole Wheat Pastry Flour (75 grams)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder (I used sodium free)

Directions: Preheat Oven to 400 degrees
1. Peel and mash the two bananas in a large bowl.
2. Add in the milk and egg white and combine slightly with a fork.
3. Using an electric beater/mixer, beat the liquid mixture for 1 to 2 minutes until foamy.
4. Measure out the flour, baking soda and baking powder in a small bowl. Sift together with a fork.
5. Fold in the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and combine until it creates a creamy batter (don't overmix)
*** The mix might dilapidate a little bit from mixing, but that's okay
6. Spray mini or regular sized muffins pans.
7. Measure in a slightly overfilled spoon full of muffin batter into mini muffin pans, or 3 spoonfuls into regular muffin pans (mine are shorter than normal however, so you might want to use 4)
8. Place the muffin pans in the oven and bake for 10 to 25 minutes or until golden brown (depending on size and oven temperatures). Mine were done in about 15 minutes.
9. Take the muffins out, let cool and transfer to a baking rack. ENJOY!

    "Bump" does two things:

    1. It saves the post in the "your topics" tab at the top of the page so you can find a recipe or post later.

    2. Its "bumps" the post up higher in the community topics so more people will see it and respond.

    I am going to make them now. One question, do you think you can freeze them? I am by myself and if I have them on the counter I will be tempted to eat them all.

    Do you miss the sugar in this recipe? (taste wise)

    You can tell that there is no sugar added, but they are still naturally sweet. Besides, you can have 3 regular size muffins to replace a normal muffin calorie wise. :smile:

    I am not sure how they would freeze. What you could do is put them in cupcake liners and freeze the batter uncooked. Then bake them whenever you are ready.
