Cranberry Banana Oat Muffins

Today in BASES was baking day!  Because I was busy in the kitchen teaching Katarina, Jeena, Jayden and Raheel how to cook, I wasn't able to get behind my camera to snap some pictures.

So in lieu, I will have to share the amazing recipe.  YUMMY YUMMY muffins!

Preheat oven to 375 F and grease a 12-cup muffin pan

INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/4 cups All Purpose Flour
• 1 cup Oats
• 2/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 egg
• 1 3/4 mashed ripe bananas (5 - 6 bananas)
• 1/3 cup butter, melted
• 1 cup cranberries (fresh are best, but dried can be used if needed.  can also substitute for blueberries)

1.  Combined first six ingredients in a mixing bowl.  Mix well.

2.  Beat together egg, banana and melted butter until smooth.  Add to dry ingredients.  Stir to blend.  Stir in cranberries just until combined.  Spoon batter into prepared muffin pan, filling almost to the top.  

3.  Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the top springs back when lightly touched.

VARIATION:  For a heartier muffin, use Whole Wheat Flour.
