Healthy Banana Bran Muffins

These were made from bran cereal– amazing!

Cereal that has a lot of grams of fiber and resembles dog food is my favorite.
I don’t know why I like it, I just do.
Kroger brand Bran cereal is a preferred choice.

I never noticed it before but on the side of the box, there is a recipe for muffins:

Oh hey there, recipe!

After noticing this, I observed that we had a very ripe banana in the kitchen thus making it an ideal time to try out this recipe.

I made a few adjustments, to ensure these muffins are super healthy and very low in fat. And high in tastiness.

This is what you need:

• 2 cups Bran cereal
• 1 cup skim milk
• 1 mashed ripe banana (about 1/2 cup)
• Substitute 1/4 cup oil and 1 egg with ONE CONTAINER of greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup fake sugar (I use splenda)
• 1 cup of flour
• 1 Tbls. of baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon or pumpkin spice ( I suggest the latter since it is Fall!)
• A pinch/splash of vanilla extract

1. Preheat oven to 400° and grease up a muffin pan like a chiseled body builder.
2. In a bowl, pour cereal and milk together. Mix.
3. Take greek yogurt (I used vanilla flavor) and add to cereal/milk mixture. Then add mashed up banananannana. Mix well!

Yummy… that last picture looks kind of gross.

4. In a separate larger bowl, mix your flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon/pumpkin spice, and vanilla extract.

It is organic! Fancy!

5. Then add your banana mush mixture to the dry ingredient mixture. It should look messy, like this:

How delightful.

6. Spoon evenly into 12 muffin molds and pop it in the oven for 22-27 minutes

Ready to be baked!

7. Remove from muffin mold, let them cool (I suggest you do that because I burnt my tongue brutally due to impatience) and then enjoy!

Muffffffffffin muffin. Yummy.
