R is for.... Recipe I love right now. I just mixed up a batch so we can have breakfast on the run tomorrow for the last day of school.

Whole Wheat Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

1 egg

1/2 cup white sugar or substitute

1/2 cup milk

1/3 cup canola or vegetable oil

1 teaspoon vanilla

2 ripe bananas, mashed with a fork

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup mini chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease or line 12 muffin cups.

2. Place the egg, sugar, milk, canola oil, vanilla and mashed bananas into a mixing bowl or stand mixer. Mix with a hand mixer or stand mixer for 2-3 minutes, or until smooth. Add the mashed bananas and mix for another 1-2 minutes.

3. Add the flour, baking powder and salt into the bowl or stand mixer. Mix until batter is smooth, about 3 minutes. Remove the bowl from the stand mixer or set aside the hand mixer. Fold in the mini chocolate chips.

4. Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full with the batter.

5. Bake at 350 for 16-18 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.

6. Let cool for a few minutes, then remove muffins from the muffin tin. Let cool another 5-10 minutes, then serve.
