Muffin lovers this one is for you!!!!!   This recipe is the perfect combination of healthy and sweet.  We made this with the little ones when they came to visit and everyone was very happy!!!!  Baking is such a nice family activity.  Don't you agree? 

Makes 6 large muffins.

INGREDIENTS

1 cup ripe banana, mashed

⅔ cup French Vanilla Javamelts

½ cup vegetable or canola oil

2 whole eggs

½ cup milk

½ cup plain yogurt

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon flaxmeal

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon iodized salt

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 425°F. Line each cup of a large, “bakery style” muffin pan with parchment paper or large muffin cups. NOTE: these are about double the size of regular muffins, so be sure to pay attention to this when purchasing muffin cups.

In a large bowl, whisk together mashed banana, French Vanilla Javamelts, and oil. Add eggs, milk, and yogurt, and whisk until combined. Add the flour, flaxmeal, baking powder, baking soda, iodized salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk until JUST combined, then gently fold in blueberries until just combined.

Divide batter evenly among the 6 large muffin cups, and place in the oven. Bake for 5 minutes. Then, REDUCE THE OVEN TEMPERATURE to 350°F 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

NOTE: if you would like to bake “regular sized” muffins, simply divide the batter among 12-15 regular sized muffin cups, and bake at 425°F for 5 minutes. Then, REDUCE THE OVEN TEMPERATURE to 350°F 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  ENJOY!!!
