    1 medium ripe banana -- mashed

    1 1/4 cups skim milk
    1/4 cup eggbeaters
    1 1/4 cups Reduced Fat Bisquick
    1 teaspoon cinnamon -- or Apple Pie Spice
    1/3 cup dark brown sugar
    1 cup blueberries -- fresh or frozen

    Preheat oven to 400.

    In a medium bowl mash the banana and add the All Bran, the milk, the vanilla and the egg beaters.

    In a small bowl mix the Bisquick, the spice and the brown sugar; add to the wet mixture, stir until just combined, do not overmix.

    Fold in blueberries.

    Spray muffin tin with Pam and fill muffin cups.

    Makes 12 muffins.

    The muffins are soft when they come out of the oven, but they firm up as they cool. Hope you enjoy them. One point each!

    NOTES : Points will vary depending on the fiber content of your All Bran. See below for break down:

    Using regular All Bran ( 1/2 cup= 31g= 80 cals, 1 g. fat, 4 g. fiber)
    125 CALS, 1 G.FAT, 4 G. FIBER = 2 points per muffin

    Using 1 cup regular All Bran plus 1 cup Kashi
    122 cals., 1 g. fat, 3 g. fiber= 2 points per muffin

    Using All Bran Extra Fiber (I put in serving size= 1/2 cup= 31 g(guess)= 50 cals, 1 g. fat, 13 g. fiber):
    115 cals, 1 g. fat, 5 g. fiber=1 point per muffin (would be 2 pts/muffin if Kashi is included)

    Using Canadian All Bran Flakes (serving size= 1/2 cup(?), 30 g. = 105 cals., 0.7 g. fat, 4.6 g. fiber):
    134 cals, 1 g. fat, 3 g. fiber= 2 points per muffin

  • For Sarah:

    I store these in the freezer. Place each muffin in a little baggie and then stick all of them into a large, freezer-weight ziplock bag. I like to microwave just enough to thaw and them stick in 325 degree toaster oven for up to 10 mins to "freshen". This is not necessary -- I'm just fussy.
