I’m looking for some healthy breakfast bread recipes. I would love to make breakfast muffins or small loaves to keep in the freezer and defrost for breakfasts. I’m looking for healthy recipes that include whole wheat flour and/or oatmeal and that are sweet but not too sweet! I am hoping to make some of these recipes on my next freezer cooking day. Please flood me with bread and muffin recipes to try!
Here is my banana muffies recipe. We love ’em! Whole wheat + low sugar…

Banana Bran Muffins
1 1/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1/2 cup Wheat Bran
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup Oil
1/2 cup Buttermilk (or mix a teaspoon or so of vinegar with 1/2 cup milk)
3 or 4 mashed Bananas
Optional: 1/2 cup Chocolate Chips
In a bowl, mix flour, bran, baking soda, and baking powder. In a separate bowl beat egg, sugar, oil. Add mashed bananas and buttermilk to egg mixture. Mix together dry and wet ingredients and stir just until moist. Bake at 375 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until firm on top. YUMMY!
Not whole grain but EASY and includes that all important beta carotene anti-oxidant! Used to make these and not tell my boys that they had ‘pumpkin’ and they never knew! A box of spice cake mix, small can solid pack pumpkin, 2 egg whites. Mix well, bake in muffin tins till done. Can add nuts and raisins if desired! (This works with chocolate cake mix as well – I am not opposed to chocolate for breakfast – or any other time for that matter! PS – don’t tell Tad about the pumpkin . . love you – mom
