Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oven to 400 F. Line muffin tins with paper baking cups or lightly coat the tins with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

Combine the wheat bran and the pureed bananas and allow to stand until the mixture is mushy. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, whole egg, egg whites, oil and raisins. In another bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and baking soda.

Stir the flour mixture into the banana and bran mixture alternately with the buttermilk. Stir just enough to mix ingredients but do not overbeat.

Fill each muffin tin with the batter. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until brown and firm on top. Cool completely and wrap individually in plastic wrap or store in an airtight tin.
