Try this recipe for a post-workout treat:
1 1/2 cups oat bran
1 cup egg whites
1/2 cup unsweetened cinnamon applesauce
1/2 cup canned pumpkin
1/4 cup non-fat Greek yogurt or cottage cheese
1 tbsp. natural peanut butter (or any nut butter)
1 full banana, sliced
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Preheat oven to 350. Cover muffin tins with cooking spray or papers. Mix ingredients in the order listed above, adding blueberries right before spooning batter into muffin tins. Bake for 25 minutes. Leave in pan to cool. Enjoy warm, or freeze muffins and store individually for later. They mold fast, so freeze those you won't enjoy right away.
Alternative Preparations:
~ Add 1 tbsp. of honey or agave nectar for a slightly sweeter muffin.
~ Add chopped walnuts for some omega 3 fatty acids.
~ Throw in raisins or dried cranberries for extra flavor.
