BANANA, BLUEBERRY, OAT, AND WALNUT MUFFINS
Steps:
- 1) Preheat oven to 400°. Grease and flour muffin tins. 2) Mix egg and sugar until light and thick, about 5 minutes. 3) Add mashed banana, yogurt, oil, vanilla, and honey. Mix well. 4) In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix thoroughly. 5) Fold in dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Continue to fold carefully until mixture is homogeneous. 6) Fold in dried blueberries and 3/4 of the chopped walnuts. 7) Distribute batter evenly, and top each muffin with remaining walnut crumbles. 8) Place in oven for about 20 minutes, until tester comes out clean. 9) Using knife, remove muffins from tin and let cool for 10 minutes. 10) Serve warm or at room temperature.
NO-FLOUR NO-SUGAR OAT WALNUT FRUIT MUFFINS
This recipe is adapted from a friend's--it makes hearty, moist muffins that are good for South Beach Phase 2 because they have no refined carbs or sugar--just oats, oat bran, flax seed, and walnuts. I make them for my partner who has high cholesterol. The flax seed substitutes for oil/butter and also makes them really fluffy; for SB you can substitute fresh/frozen blueberries or cranberries for the craisins. Note: These are NOT SWEET--they are more like a walnut-fruit bread than a sweet muffin, we prefer this. You can make them sweeter by using vanilla soy milk, but that adds sugar to this no-sugar delight. The fruit is also optional--I've made them with just walnuts and they are still delicious. Enjoy!
