Blueberry Banana Oat Muffins

"My blueberry muffin recipe, that is gone before I turn around if left on the counter. My husband adores it, and can easily eat 4-5, bless his heart! I experimented with this for low fat in 1994, and have made it since."

Great recipe! I used whole egg, half ww flour and no wheat germ. I also used vanilla like someone else suggested and added lemon juice, it just seems to go with this muffin. I topped a few with pecans. We all loved these! Thanks!

wonderful! I used a whole egg, half ww flour, a little vanilla and lemon juice, instead of wheat germ I used flax seed and added 2 Tbs applesauce and 1/4 cup chopped walnuts. Divine!

I got this recipe from the Best of Bridge. We enjoy this muffin and it gives me an excuse to use up those old bananas that seem to be hanging around

I altered this slightly because I didn't have enough banana. I cut the recipe in half and did 1/2 cup mashed banana, 1/2 cup applesauce. The only other addition was I added 1/4 tsp vanilla. I used a full egg and real butter. I made mini muffins so the cooking time was less (and so we felt like we had more muffins!). They turned out moist and delicious and I love that they are so healthy.

Very good muffins! I wasn't worried about fat so I did use whole eggs and oil instead of melted margarine. They did rise and they are a hit! What a great way to use up my old bananas!
