Multi-Grain Banana Muffins (Low Fat, Too!) image

I adapted a banana muffin recipe to include healthier grains, less oil, less sugar and more spice. They don't taste low-fat or healthy--just like good, homemade banana muffins.

Time 40m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 oat bran
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup oats
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 cups mashed bananas (use very ripe fruit)
1 egg
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine the oats and buttermilk in a small bowl; let these sit while you prepare the other ingredients.
  • Mix the dry ingredients (including the cinnamon and nutmeg) together in a medium mixing bowl.
  • Mash the banana until it's nearly smooth--measure once the fruit is mashed, of course.
  • Add the egg, oil, sugar, and vanilla.
  • After stirring those together, add in the oat-buttermilk mixture.
  • Add the wet ingredients into the dry, stirring just until the dry ingredients are absorbed and no large lumps remain.
  • Refrain from over-mixing.
  • Grease twelve muffin cups.
  • Spoon the batter in, filling the cups evenly to about 2/3 or 3/4 full.
  • Bake 25-30 minutes, until the top is slightly springy when gently pushed with a finger.
