By pavaldez

Ingredients

• 3 egg whites
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup melted margarine
• 2 small ripe bananas, mashed
• 3/4 cup orange juice
• 1-1/2 cups whole-wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• dash of salt
• 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.


In a bowl, combine the egg whites, brown sugar, melted margarine, bananas, and the orange juice.


In a second bowl, combine the remaining dry ingredients. Stir the dry ingredients into the orange-banana mixture.


Divide the batter into 12 muffin cups sprayed with a nonstick vegetable oil spray, like Pam. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden and cooked through. A toothpick or knife inserted in the center of the muffin should come out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
