BANANA MORNING GLORY MUFFINS (COOKING LIGHT)
A delicious, nutritious and satisfying muffin from "Cooking Light Magazine (July 2007). You can definitely play around with this recipe- it does well with substitutions. These freeze very well. Either microwave for 20 seconds or just pull one out of the freezer before you leave for the day, and it will be defrosted and perfect in about an hour, just in time for a snack!. If you want, you can fold the flax into the batter, rather than sprinkling it on top.

Steps:
- Pre-heat to 350°F.
- Grease 12 muffin cups

- Fill muffin tins 1/3 of the way full.
- Bake for 35 minutes or until inserted tooth pick comes out clean. :).
Tips:
- To make your muffins even lighter and fluffier, whip the egg whites separately until stiff peaks form and then fold them into the batter. This will add air and volume to the muffins.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- Be sure not to overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the muffins tough.
- Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will make the muffins dry.
