Ingredients

    1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
    0.25 cup Oat Bran
    1.33 cup rolled oats
    1 tbsp *Flax Seed Meal (ground flax)
    0.5 tsp Baking Soda
    1.5 tsp Baking Powder
    1 tsp Salt
    1 large Egg, fresh, whole, raw
    1 cup Milk - Skim (Non Fat)
    8 tbsp PC Fancy Molasses
    0.25 cup Butter, unsalted
    300 grams Banana, fresh
    0.25 cup, whole Cranberries
    0.25 cup, unthawed Blueberries, frozen (unsweetened)
    0.25 cup, unthawed Strawberries, frozen, unsweetened
    0.25 cup *Great Value Red Raspberries Frozen

Tips

Original recipe calls for 1/4 cup of sugar but it has been eliminated (it's not missed) & 1 cup of buttermilk. Buttermilk (even 1%) has fat in it so I use warmed skim milk mixed with 1 tbsp. of white vinegar (I couldn't find the vinegar in the ingredient list) & let that stand for 5 minutes before adding to the wet mixture.

Frozen cranberries are fine. Use any mixture of frozen berries that you like.

"PC Fancy Molasses" is the house-brand from SuperStore (in Canada). 8 tbsp = 1/2 cup (I couldn't select "cup" as a measurement).


Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F & prepare a 12-cup muffin tin (coat with non-stick spray or line with paper liners). Melt butter, mash bananas, lightly beat egg & mix these items with the molasses and milk. In a separate bowl mix dry ingredients, then stir in frozen berries. Gently fold in the wet mixture with the dry mixture until just mixed. Pour batter into muffin tin & bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool muffins for a couple of minutes in pan before placing on a cooling rack.
