Banana Blueberry Muffins

Here's the recipe of the muffins I posted a few days ago. I made them again and Kent remarked how delicious they were. It was especially nice because I tried to make them a little less like a dessert by cutting out some of the sugar and oil. Anyway, here's my adaption of a basic recipe.

3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 TBS. honey
4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 beaten eggs
1 cup milk
1/4 cup oil
1/4 cup applesauce
1 1/2 cups mashed bananas
3/4 cup blueberries (approx)
1 cup chopped nuts (optional

In a mixing bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and 1/2 tsp. salt. Make a well in the center. Combine egg, milk, honey, oil, applesauce and bananas; add all at once to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter should be lumpy). Fold in blueberries and nuts. Lightly grease muffin cups; fill 2/3 full. Bake in a 400 degree oven about 20 minutes (mine took less time) or till golden. Remove from pans; serve warm. Makes 2 dozen.

Note: Don't use muffin papers. This muffin variety sticks!
