Banana Oat Bran Muffins image

This started out as a high fat recipe from epicurious.com. I replaced the white flour with whole wheat and whole wheat pastry flour, substituted nonfat yogurt and applesauce for the whole milk and butter and used raisins in place of nuts. In the end, you end up with a moist, flavorful, nutritious, fat-free muffin. What is better than that? They also freeze very well.
