Cocoa Branana Muffins

I usually make Banana Muffins with chocolate chips, and everyone loves those, but I thought I'd try something a little different. I've had had this recipe for ages but never made them until yesterday.

Cocoa Branana Muffins

Ingredients:
  • 1-1/2 cups Kellogg's All-Bran cereal
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 ripe banana, sliced
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 2 T. unsweetened cocoa powder
Directions:
  1. In large mixing bowl, combine cereal and milk. Let stand 5 minutes or until cereal is softened. Add egg and oil. Beat well. Stir in sugar and sliced banana.
  2. Mix flour, baking powder, salt and cocoa together and stir into cereal mixture, stirring only until combined.
  3. Portion batter evenly into 12 paper-lined or greased muffin tins.
  4. Bake at 400° F about 25 minutes or until muffins are lightly browned. Serve warm.
Yield: 12 muffins


The original recipe called for skim milk and 2 egg whites, but I just used 2% milk and 1 whole egg. They turned out really well, though I'm pretty sure our regular banana muffins will remain everyone's favorite.
