Banana Blueberry Muffins

Again, I'm making up for not doing much Kitchen Therapy.  A local grocery store had blueberries on sale......even tho I still have some in the freezer, the thought of fresh blueberries made me happy. I had a couple of very ripe bananas that I wanted to use....so this is what I came up with.  I spread a little Brummel & Brown on one and it was delicious!!!

BANANA BLUEBERRY MUFFINS
Makes 12 muffins
1 muffin = 2 PointsPlus™


2 medium very ripe bananas, mashed
1/4 cup fat-free egg substitute
1/2 cup fat-free milk
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup blueberries


Preheat oven to 350º. Spray muffin pan; set aside.

Beat together the mashed bananas and egg substitute until creamy.

Add milk and applesauce; beat well.

Add flour, baking soda and baking powder; beat well.

Gently fold in the blueberries.


Spoon into muffin pan.
 
 
 
Bake 23 minutes or until lightly browned.
 
 
 
Cool on rack.


MY SPIN: This doesn't call for cinnamon, but I sprinkled some in the batter. The next time I make this I will put a generous 1 teaspoon in for flavor......I just think they need cinnamon. Also, I put more than 1 cup of blueberries in these muffins......1 cup just didn't seem like enough. When you add more blueberries, these become a very generous muffin for a mere 2 PointsPlus™!

Now for the 'legal mumbo-jumbo' to keep me out of court!! *** The PointsPlus™ value for this recipe was calculated by me (Jan Gomes) and is not an endorsement or approval of this recipe by Weight Watchers International, Inc., the owner of the PointsPlus™ registered trademark. ***

Later!
