Ingredients
Cocoa Banana Bran Muffins1 cup (300 ml) All-Bran Original* cereal
cup (175mL) mlk (1%)
1 cup (250 ml) all-purpose flour
cup (125 ml) lightly packed brown sugar
cup (50 ml) cocoa powder
1 Tbsp (15 ml) baking powder
tsp each, baking soda and salt
1 egg
cup (50 ml) canola oil
3 large, very ripe bananas (reserve 12 thin slices, mash remainder)
cup (75 ml) semi-sweet chocolate chips
TipDirections
Cocoa Banana Bran Muffins1. In medium bowl, combine cereal and milk. Let stand for about 2 minutes or until cereal softens.
2. In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
3. Add egg, oil and mashed bananas to cereal mixture; beat well. Add liquid mixture to dry ingredients, stirring only until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Portion batter evenly into 12 (2/6.5 cm) non-stick muffin pan cups, lightly coated with cooking spray. Top each cup with a reserved banana slice.
4. Bake in 400F (200C) oven for 20 minutes or until tops spring back when lightly touched.
Tip1. These moist, decadent muffins are especially good if eaten while they are still warm from the oven! If you reheat them from room temperature in the microwave oven, they just need about 20 seconds per muffin at a gentle heat setting (medium or medium low).
