In Oak Creek, Wisconsin, Lauren Heyn bakes up these yummy treats. Lots of banana flavor and plenty of chocolate chips disguise the whole wheat taste in these moist muffins. They're perfect for breakfast or an anytime snack. Ingredients:
3/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3/4 cup king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour |
1/2 cup wheat bran |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1 teaspoon baking powder |

1-1/3 cups mashed ripe bananas (2 to 3 medium) |
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 cup miniature chocolate chips |
1/3 cup chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. In another bowl, combine the eggs, milk, bananas, applesauce and vanilla. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in chocolate chips.
