Banana Blueberry Oat Mini Muffins

Yes! These muffins did ooze with blueberries!!! It is a pro & con for me; I love seeing the ooze & how juicy they look, however I know I will end up with sticky fingers afterwards! This recipe was graded at an A- & was calculated over at Calorie Count. I used the mini muffin pan & ended up 38 muffins; the nutritional information down below is based off of this & with ingredients I used.

Ingredients


2 cups rolled uncooked oats
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
3 tbsp egg whites (equals 1 egg)
2 tbsp natural apple sauce 
2 bananas, mashed
1 cup blueberries
1/8 cup honey*
1/8 cup molasses* 


*You can either use these ingredients like this, or you can use 1/4 cup of either one. I had intended to use molasses, but only had 1/8 cup, so I supplemented it with honey. Although molasses is better then honey.*


-Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees F.
-First mash the bananas, then add the rest of the ingredients.
-Bake for 10-12 minutes if using the mini muffin pans (14-17 minutes if you're using regular size muffins)
