Provided by dfallon

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cup self-rising flour (all-purpose flour can be used for a smaller, denser muffin)

1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup skim milk
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 cup mashed banana (2 small ripe bananas)
1/2 cup raisins, unpacked

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. In large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and baking soda. Stir in oat bran. Make a well in center. Into the well, add applesauce, oil, egg, skim milk, maple syrup, banana and raisins. Use a large table fork to mix until just combined.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
  • If you don't have raisins, you can substitute other dried fruit, such as cranberries, blueberries, or chopped nuts.
  • To make your muffins extra moist, add a tablespoon of sour cream or yogurt to the batter.
  • If you want a crispy muffin top, sprinkle some sugar on top of the muffins before baking.
  • To test if your muffins are done, insert a toothpick into the center of one of them. If the toothpick comes out clean, the muffins are done.
