BANANA WHEAT GERM MUFFINS

This was found on the back of Roger's Wheat Germ, but I have changed the all purpose flour to whole wheat. DS has been going through some testings for Celiac and we were told to up his fibre intake. Everyone enjoys these very much.

Time 40m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup whole-wheat flour
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup wheat germ
1 teaspoon baking soda
Salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature

  • Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars together in a separate bowl until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. In a separate bowl, combine the mashed bananas with the milk and vanilla. With the mixer on low, alternately add one-third of the flour mixture and half of the banana mixture to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Fold in the blueberries.
  • Divide the batter among the muffin cups. Bake 20 to 24 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

BANANA-WHEAT GERM MUFFINS (VEGAN)



Banana-Wheat Germ Muffins (Vegan) image

These are great for when you want a sweet treat. Not as sweet as cupcakes, yet sweeter than most "healthy" muffins (due to the bananas), these are perfect any time! The recipe is from Veganomicon.

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 42m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup plain soymilk
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
2 very ripe bananas
1/3 cup canola oil
1/3 cup evaporated cane juice (or sugar)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour
3/4 cup wheat germ
1 tablespoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray (or use foil muffin liners--much easier).
  • Pour the soy milk into a measuring cup and add the vinegar to it. Set it aside to curdle.
  • Meanwhile, mash the bananas in a large mixing bowl. Add the soy milk mixture to the bowl along with the oil, sugar, and vanilla, and mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, wheat germ, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Add this to the banana mixture and use a wooden spoon to gently stir the ingredients, until all the dry ingredients are just moistened (do not over-stir!).
  • Fill the muffin cups three-quarters full and bake for 22 minutes. Remove from the oven and, once cool enough to handle, transfer to a cooling rack to cool the rest of the way. You can also serve them warm.

BANANA WHEAT GERM MUFFINS



Banana Wheat Germ Muffins image

My whole family loves these muffins. I originally found this recipe in a weight watchers magazine from the mid-nineties. I saved it, although over the years I've tweaked it and it is no longer a low cal/low fat muffin. I think the original recipe used margarine, skim milk and 3 egg whites, not 100% positive though as I've been...

WHOLE WHEAT HONEY BANANA MUFFINS



Whole Wheat Honey Banana Muffins image

These muffins are delicious and have a great texture, and they are 100% healthy! No refined flour or sweeteners. We have a big family, so this recipe makes a lot of muffins, but it is easily halved for a smaller group. To make the muffins lower in fat, replace half of the oil with unsweetened applesauce. I also use "white whole-wheat" flour, which is softer than that made with red wheat (but has the exact same nutritional value).
