How to Make Funky Fat Free Banana Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line muffin tins with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together ½ cup packed refined brown sugar (or sucanat), 2 large egg whites, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  3. Add 1 ½ cups mashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium) and mix well.
  4. Stir in ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Fill muffin cups about ¾ full.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes for regular muffins, or 12-15 minutes for mini muffins, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cool in the tins for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
