Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins!

Fat Free Vegan's Susan V. makes great muffins- this morning it was her Banana-Date-Walnut muffin recipe. But tweaked.

• No dates- not on hand, could use raisins instead,
  
• No walnuts- hubs doesn't like, and they're fatty when I don't want that at breakfast
• Use white whole wheat and regular whole wheat instead of regular flour. More fiber, more filling
  
• Add 6 chocolate chips per muffin- put a little batter in the sprayed pan, then add chips, then cover to bury them. It's about 3 T. that you add to the recipe total, adding only 17 calories per muffin.
• Don't heat the oven until you've mixed everything, and let the batter sit. I got that recommendation from Isa on Post Punk Kitchen- it lets the gluten strands form and you get a higher rise/lighter batter, which can be harder to obtain in vegan goods. She used it with pancakes, and now I'm doing it with all baked goods.
• Spray the pan with oil so they don't stick!

Result- Muffins that taste like cupcakes, fill you up, and only clock in at 150 calories! Enjoy!
