Banana Muffins
3/4 cup light olive oil
2/3 cup agave
1/2 cup liquid egg whites (like eggbeaters)
3 ripe bananas
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup wheat germ
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. In a large bowl, combine liquid ingredients.
3. Add the bananas and beat well with an electric mixer.
4. Add in the flour, wheat germ, baking soda and salt. Beat well.
5. Use a large spoon to drop the batter into a greased muffin tin. (I used a 2-tablespoon scoop.)
6. Bake at 350 for 12-14 minutes, checking half-way. Cool in the tin for a few minutes then tranfer to a wire cooling rack.
7. Frost with Nutella! (optional but highly recommended)
Makes 2 dozen.

forgot to mention that these are heart healthy! i use olive oil and egg whites in many of my recipes to make them healthier. obviously, frosting these with nutella obliterates the heart healthiness.
