LOW CAL VEGAN BANANA MUFFINS



Low Cal Vegan Banana Muffins image

This is a recipe I have adapted from another on this site to be vegan. This produced a very nice, sweet, moist muffin. Goes great with coffee (YUM!) **After trying these after they cooled, they are VERY moist. Still very tasty, but moist. I'll play with the recipe to correct that a little. I am new to the vegan scene, so suggestions are welcome! ;0)**
