Banana Oatmeal Muffins

These are one of my favorite healthy muffin recipes. I also changed it so it has no oil and less sugar (if you don't want to use splenda you can use 1/2 brown sugar instead.) than the original recipe. I also usually add some chocolate chips in it for the kids. There is no flour in this recipe either. To make your own oat flour just put regular oatmeal in the food processor and blend until it turns to flour.

Yield: 12 large
Bake: in 400ºF oven for 20 minutes

1 1/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup yogurt, plain low fat
1/2 cup milk, low fat
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup slpenda
1/3 cup applesauce
2 bananas, large, ripe, mashed
1 egg, large, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cup oat flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda

Instructions
In a bowl mix together rolled oats, yogurt and milk. Let soak for 10 minutes.
Mix oat flour, salt, spices, baking powder and baking soda in a bowl.
Add brown sugar, mashed banana, egg and oil to rolled oats mixture. Mix well.
Add dry ingredients to the rolled oats mixture. Mix well. Fill greased or paper lined muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake for approximately 20 minutes.
