Crunchy Banana Muffins
Healthy muffins that are low in processed sugar and fat, high in protein and loaded with fruit.
Ingredients
Directions
- In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Thoroughly mix in the melted margarine.
- In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Mix in the milk, vanilla, and mashed bananas. Add this to the flour and margarine mixture.
- One at a time, fold in the chopped bananas, granola, chopped nuts and dried fruit.
- Preheat oven to 350° F (175° C). Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
- Scoop the muffin batter into the cups, filling them to the top. Optional: top with a sprinkle of brown sugar and granola or crushed banana chips, pressing the topping into the batter.
- Bake 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffin comes out clean.
- Note: substitute the almonds and raisins for any kind of nuts or dried fruit you prefer (e.g. walnuts, pecans, cranberries, shredded coconut, apricots).

does 1 cup of sugar mean 'low in processed sugar' ? surely this is high in sugar ?

This is not a great recipe for Weight Watchers. One muffin from this recipe is 6 pts. Way more than I would even be willing to use on one muffin. But I did try this recipe for my family and they liked the muffins. I left out the almonds though and cut back on the amount of bannans.
