A slight twist on Chicklet14580's Lowfat Banana Muffins - I had to make a few tweaks and add some chocolate & pecans to get my self-proclaimed muffin-hater husband to even taste these. Now he loves them with coffee for breakfast!
Quick tip: Occasionally I throw ripe bananas in the freezer to use for cooking/smoothies, etc. If you thaw two med. size frozen bananas in the microwave for about 30-45 seconds, you'll have the perfect consistency for the muffins, with very little need for mashing. Also, because I only had 3/4 C of bananas on hand, I substituted the remainder of the cup (the original recipe called for) with applesauce and the muffins came out perfectly moist. You could make the recipe with 1 C. Bananas & 1/2 C. Applesauce, or (if you're low on one or the other) substitute a little of each with the other to reach 1 1/2 Cups total (banana & apple sauce).
Also, to make the recipe even more healthy, feel free to substitute whole-wheat flour for the white flour and/or substitute the 1 large egg with 2 large egg whites to reduce the fat from the yolk. You can also reduce the pecans & chocolate to 1/8 cup each.
Need to use up a muffin mix in the cabinet? Substitute blueberry NSA applesauce for the oil to reduce the fat & calories + you add quite a bit of flavor to the batter.
This is a whole wheat, lower fat version of the decadent pancakes found on Bakerella's blog.
Easy to make & oh so yummy for only 86 calories each!
These freeze well. Just pop in the microwave for about 15-30 seconds & serve. Finish in the toaster for a crisper texture.
Great as is but terrific when topped with some fresh sliced strawberries!
Enjoy.
Made with 30 oz. egg beaters, 1c. cheedar cheese and 6 turkey sausage patties.
This is similar to Chickleti4580's recipe, but made with gluten-free flours.
Very filling breakfast or a nice dessert
Can add sliced strawberries too for add extra flavor
This simple omelet takes just a few minutes to make. Very good and filling.
Make a batch of these, freeze, and eat one or two for breakfast throughout the week
