Gee...muffins are the best and easiest baked little cakes for me to bake when I was younger and I used to remember one of my favourite was with sweet mashed bananas.Who would not love bananas as they are comfort fruit when we were babies....my mum told me that I love to eat them when I was a baby !!!
Well, so much of talking let us get to this recipe which I had changed a little from the original basic muffin recipe which I have....I had substituted some of the ingredients and changed a little and voila ....here is the healthier version of my banana bran oatmeal chocolate chip muffins....enjoy.....
