Banana Bran Muffin Energy Snack Recipe

Banana Bran Muffin - Fruity Recipes

Ingredients

Canola oil spray
¾  cup unbleached organic all-purpose flour
¼  cup whole wheat pastry flour
½  cup oat bran
¼  cup sugar
1  teaspoon baking soda
2  egg whites, slightly beaten
¼  cup mashed, very ripe banana
½  cup organic nonfat milk

1  tablespoon canola oil
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Spray a 6-cup muffin tin with canola oil spray.   
In a medium mixing bowl, combine flours, oat bran, sugar, and baking soda.    
In a small bowl, combine egg whites, banana, milk, and oil. Add the liquid mixture to the 
dry ingredients, stirring just enough to blend.
Spoon the batter into the cups of the muffin tin, filling each about two-thirds full to leave     
room for expansion as the muffins bake. Bake for 18 minutes. Serve warm.
note Make your own canola oil spray by putting canola oil in a spray bottle. The store-bought sprays add an unpleasant propellant smell to your cooking, and they cost too
much!
variation   Add ½ cup blueberries or chopped fresh apricots.
