Orange Banana Muffins

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
• 3/4 cup rolled oats
• 1/2 cup flour, unbleached
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons wheat germ
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1 cup mashed bananas (approx. 2)
• 2 tablespoons grated orange zest
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Preparing

Preheat oven to 400°. Grease six 3-inch muffin pan cups. In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients. In a small bowl combine all the remaining liquid ingredients, mixing well. Add the liquid mixture to the dry all at once and stir just until moistened. Spoon the mixture into the prepared cups filling them 2/3 full. Bake approximately 25 minutes or until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
