3/4 c. flour
1/4 c. whole wheat flour

1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/8 tsp. salt
1 c. mashed banana (riper the better)

1/4 c. applesauce
Mix the flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a bowl. In a separate bowl mix together mashed banana, sugar, egg, and vanilla, then stir in applesauce.

Merilee's additions: This recipe is delicious as is, but once I added 1/8 cup whole flaxseed, nutmeg, and cinnamon and it added a great flavor! Any variation of these would be good I think. Try adding chopped walnuts if you like extra texture. I don't add them because they cost $.
get in my belly :) but is it bad that if i made them i know i'd probably whip up some cream cheese frosting to put in top?? ;) thanks for the recipe mer!
ReplyDeleteGUILT FREE cream cheese frosting, because the muffins are healthy ;) Eat up! :)
ReplyDeleteYummy, I will be making asap!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I think we'll give 'em a try. These days we're trying to do sugarless, so we'll probably substitute honey or "Just Like Sugar." Thanks Mer!
