Makes 11 muffins. 123 calories per muffin.
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup quick oats
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 tablespoons oil
- 1 egg white
- 1/3 cup milk
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar unpacked
- 100gm chopped dates
- 100gm mashed banana
- Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
- Mix the dates with two-teaspoon flour and keep aside.
- In a bowl, mix the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a different bowl, beat the egg white with sugar, then add the milk, oil, and mashed banana.
- Pour the previous mixture to the flour and mix gently. Add the dates and stir to combine. Don’t over mix.
- Pour the batter in a greased and floured muffin pan or muffin liner, bake for 14 – 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the muffin comes out clean.
** It is better not to use muffin liner, since these muffins don’t have much oil, and that doesn’t help in releasing the muffin from the liner easily.
