    Source of Recipe


    "http://www.drkoop.com/nutrition/recipes/" Sharon Howard, R.D., M.S.,

    List of Ingredients




    1 1/3 Cups 100% Bran¨ cereal
    2/3 Cup skim milk
    4 Large egg whites lightly beaten
    1/4 Cup olive oil I use canola
    1 Cup mashed ripe banana
    1/2 Cup brown sugar
    1 Cup flour
    2 Teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 Teaspoon salt
    1 1/3 Cups blueberries *Jane's addition

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 400F. Coat shallow, 2-inch muffin cups with cooking spray. Combine bran cereal and milk in a large bowl and let stand 5 minutes until softened. Beat in egg whites and oil; stir in mashed banana and brown sugar. In a separate small bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add dry ingredients to banana mixture, stirring just until blended. Fill muffin cups to rim. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until golden-brown and firm. Remove from baking pan to cool.

    Makes 24 mini muffins

    Jane's Notes: 8/17/99 -- I just baked these. I added 2/3 cup blueberries to the batter and it still only filled 6 regular muffin cups. The original recipe must call for mini-muffins (I don't know what the author means by 2 inch shallow muffin cups.) They were fully baked in 15 minutes and very large. This recipe is going into my "Jane's Favorite's" cookbook!

    For some reason, mini-muffins are counted as 1 WW point each, but 2 mini's or 1 regular come out to 3 points.
