Ingredients
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 cup unbleached white flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 cup mashed bananas (around 2 medium ones)
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 cup vanilla soymilk
  • 1/3 cup + 2 tbsp applesauce**
  • 2 tbsp agave nectar
  • 1/4 c chopped dates
  • 1/4 c chopped walnuts
  • **I added 2 tbsp of applesauce to make up for the missing banana (recipe called for 1.25 cups of banana). However the muffins came out slightly gummy so I might omit the extra 2 tbsp next time.

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400F
  2. Line a muffin tin with paper liners/ spray the muffin tin with oil
  3. Combine the flours, baking powder, salt & cinnamon. (Sifting would be a good idea)
  4. In another bowl, combine the mashed banana, sugar, soymilk, applesauce & agave nectar.
  5. Pour the wet banana mixture into the dry flour mixture.
  6. Stir till there are streaks of flour still present.
  7. Scatter the dates into the bowl (dates can be sticky so make sure you separate the dates by pulling apart the chopped bits to ensure they are evenly spread out in the batter).
  8. Add the walnuts
  9. Stir everything together briefly (just enough to get rid of the streaks of flour).
  10. Pour/ scoop batter into the paper liners/ muffin tins.
  11. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
  12. Test for done-ness with a toothpick.
