I was searching for a date bran muffin recipe with low fat and gave this a try. It requires quite a bit of chopping and preparation, but made two dozen regular-sized muffins plus enough to bake an 8x10 coffee cake, so the work is worth it to have lots of healthy snacks on hand in the freezer. The banana base is very nice, making a unique flavor. I almost skipped the blueberries, but tossed some frozen ones in and so glad I did, adding color and taste. I always put a streusel on my muffins, and a touch of cinnamon sugar as well to finish. Thank you, Dadenk!
