Re: Breads, Muffins & Scones
BANANA OAT MUFFINS
(Makes 1 dozen)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup rolled oats (not quick-cooking oats)
1 teaspoon baking soda
11/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup mashed ripe bananas
2 tablespoons granulated fructose
1/4 cup egg substitute or 1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup skim milk
1/4 cup canola oil or melted margarine
1/3 cup chopped walnuts
1/3 cup golden raisins, optional
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonfat cooking spray or use a nonstick pan.
In a large bowl, whisk the flours, oats, baking soda and baking powder together thoroughly. Set aside.
On a large plate, mash bananas with a fork. Sprinkle fructose over the bananas and mix together thoroughly. Scrape bananas into a bowl. Add egg substitute, milk and oil. Mix well. Stir in the walnuts and raisins, if using. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until completely mixed.
Fill each muffin cup half full and distribute the remaining batter evenly among the muffins. Bake for 20 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven. Cool on rack.
