Low Fat Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
in Bananas, Chocolate, Fruit, Muffins, Sour cream on Friday, October 7, 2011
Muffins can be a breakfast food, right? Some are so sweet and loaded with a heap of fat that they could be called a cupcake. Actually though, a muffin is kin to a quick bread baked in individual servings while a cupcake is just that ~ a small cake.
Muffins are great and these are low in fat and low in sugar as well. They are filled with great banana flavor and flecked with semi-sweet chocolate chips for a terrific taste combination to make them extra special. The addition of sour cream produces a muffin that holds its shape as you eat it and doesn’t crumble apart because of dryness. To get the best banana flavor, use really ripe bananas!
