Low Fat Or Fat Free Banana Crunch Muffins Recipes

LOW-FAT (OR FAT-FREE) BANANA-CRUNCH MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Spray 24 mini-muffin-pan cups with nonstick cooking spray.
• In medium bowl, mix first six ingredients.
• In large bowl, with wire whisk or fork, mix bananas, yogurt, egg substitute (egg) and vanilla well; stir in flour mixture just until moistened.
• Spoon batter into muffin-pan cups.
• Bake muffins 20 minutes or until tops are golden and toothpick inserted in center of muffin comes out clean.
• Remove from muffin-pan cups to wire racks.
• Serve warm, or cool to serve later!
• Note: I made these in heart-shaped pans I bought at a local grocery store.
• This recipe only yielded four heart-shaped cakes when I did that, and I baked them for about 45-50 minutes.
