Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray
2 cups regular rolled oats
¾ cup whole-wheat flour
⅓ cup sugar (see Tip)
1 teaspoon baking powder
¾ teaspoon apple pie spice or ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
½ cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed, or 2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 large ripe banana, mashed
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
¼ cup regular rolled oats
½ teaspoon apple pie spice or ground cinnamon

DIETETIC BANANA NUT MUFFINS



Dietetic Banana Nut Muffins image

These muffins have no sugar and no fat, but are moist and tasty. Instead of regular applesauce, I sometimes use mango-peach to give the muffins more flavor. Great recipe for diabetics! You can use all white flour instead the whole wheat flour, too.
