1 tsp. baking powder ½ tsp. baking soda ¼ tsp. salt

1 ⅓ cup whole grain flour of choice (whole wheat, spelt, or oat flour) Cooking spray or cupcake liners

This dessert can be a blood-sugar friendly option as it contains no added sugar and relies on fruit as a natural sweetener. INSTRUCTIONS 1. Preheat oven to 375°F and spray a non-stick 12 muffin pan with cooking spray. Set aside. 2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg. 3. Add bananas and mash well. 4. Add applesauce, oil, vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; whisk to combine. 5. Gently fold in flour until just combined. Do not over mix, otherwise muffins will be tough. 6. Fill each opening until almost full with batter and bake for 18 – 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean NutritionNotes
