Whiz-Bang Banana Muffins
Low Fat Recipe

These healthy banana muffins are made quickly with a blender and are great for a breakfast-on-the-run! They freeze well, too.

Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
Nonstick cooking spray or shortening
1/3 cup skim or 1% milk
One egg or two egg whites
2 tablespoons cooking oil
One large ripe banana, cut up

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400-degrees. In a large mixing bowl stir together the flour, oatmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside. Lightly coat muffin pan with cooking spray or grease with shortening. In a blender container combine milk, egg, and oil. Cover and blend smooth.

With blender running, add banana and blend into mixture. Pour into dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. Fill muffin pans 2/3 full. Bake in the 400-degree oven about 20 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Recipe makes 10 to 12 muffins.
