There may be a small amount of fat in these muffins but lurking deep inside is a bunch of fiber. Great for breakfast or snacks and almost guilt free. I have to admit I was experimenting with a variety of substitutions for this recipe and next time they will be even better. It's just cooking so don't ever be afraid to adjust a recipe to your taste! Besides, if they don't turn out you can always use them as hockey pucks! Fortunately these were edible and tasty!
Ingredients:
1 c oats
1 c whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 T brown sugar
2 T flax seed meal
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 375 degrees and mix the above. To this add the following:
1 c honey flavored Greek yogurt
1 mashed banana
2 eggs
2 T molasses
1/2 tsp vanilla
Fold in the following:
1/4 c chopped pecans
3 T crystallized ginger
1/4 c golden raisins
Grease a muffin tin or use paper muffin cups and fill each one about 2/3 full. Bake for about 20 minutes or until done. Makes about 1 dozen muffins.
These give me the chance to sneak some oats to my sons diet. I love Greek yogurt and I am sure I would love these little treats.
