Introduction

High in vitamins and low in fat! I make these when I am craving chocolate but don't want to waste calories on "junk food". High in vitamins and low in fat! I make these when I am craving chocolate but don't want to waste calories on "junk food".

Ingredients

    3 medium bananas
    1 egg
    1/3 c. unsweetened applesauce
    1/2 c. granulated sugar
    1/2 tsp. vanilla
    1 1/2 c. whole wheat flour
    1 tsp. baking powder
    1 tsp. baking soda
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/2 tsp. cinnamon
    1/4 c. wheat germ
    1/2 c. Ghirardelli 60% Bittersweet Chocolate chips



Tips

Stir just until mixed. Do not overstir.

I use a seasoned stoneware muffin pan so I do not need to grease the pan. If you grease your muffin tin, make sure to add those calories.


Directions

Mash bananas. Add egg, applesauce, sugar, and vanilla.
Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon and add to banana mixture. Gently stir in wheat germ and chocolate chips.

Bake at 375 for 18-20 minutes.

Serving Size: 12 full size muffins
