Ingredients

ngredients:

- 2 cups whole wheat flour

- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (you can use a combo of brown & white if you’d like)

- 1/4 cup blackstrap molasses

- 2 tsp baking powder

- 1 tsp baking soda

- 1/2 tsp salt

- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

- 3/4 cup skim milk (1% or 2%)

- 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce

- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

[Note: Can add 1/2 cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans) -- I didn't b/c my people don't like nuts in their muffins/brownies, etc.]

Preheat oven to 400*

Directions:

- Using a whisk, combine all dry ingredients in one bowl: whole wheat and AP flour, sugar, baking soda and powder, salt, nuts, spices).

- Beat the egg lightly in a separate bowl. Whisk in milk, applesauce, vanilla to the eggs.

- Whisk wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Fold bananas in.

- Divide the batter among a greased or paper-lined muffin tin (I used silicone muffin cups)

- Bake for about 18 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
