Ahearty oat mixture is baked into these treats;they derive most of their moisture and sweetness from bananas and applesauce.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup cake flour, (not self-rising)

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup wheat bran

  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

  • cup packed light-brown sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup finely chopped bananas

  • cup applesauce

  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • 1 ¼ cups Blueberry-Walnut Muesli

  • ½ cup dried blueberries

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Whisk together flours, bran, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl; set aside.

  2. Put butter and brown sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing until combined after each addition. Add bananas, applesauce, and vanilla; mix until combined. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture; mix until just combined. Stir in 3/4 cup muesli and the blueberries.

  3. Line 10 cups of a standard (12-cup) muffin tin with paper liners. Divide batter among cups, filling to rims. Sprinkle tops with remaining 1/2 cup muesli. Bake until a cake tester inserted into centers comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely in tin on a wire rack.
