Description

Applesauce instead of oil, white whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose, Stevia/Sun Crystal blend instead of refined sugar… and still moist and delicious!

Ingredients

  • 3 whole Bananas, Mashed
  • 1-½ cup Canned Pumpkin
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • ½ cups Applesauce (unsweetened)
  • 3 cups Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1-½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ¾ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • ¼ cups Unrefined Sugar (or Sugar Substitute)
  • ¾ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 whole Banana, Sliced (optional)

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and spray a mini-muffin pan with nonstick spray. (I spray the pan and also use liners so the muffin tops don’t stick.)
2. Puree the mashed bananas with pumpkin (or mash and mix by hand).
3. Mix the eggs, vanilla extract, and applesauce into the banana/pumpkin blend. Set aside.
4. In another bowl, mix dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, sugar, salt) together, then combine the wet and dry ingredients together and mix well. Pour batter into the prepared muffin pan.
5. Top with sliced bananas (optional!).
6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until inserted toothpick comes out clean!

I made these the other day and they are FABULOUS!! It made SO many! I think next time I will put them in a regular size muffin tin, however, being bite sized is fun! I love that they are pretty healthy for you and I don’t feel guilty. Thanks for the great recipe!
