56 Reviews of Low Fat Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins

From: hannahactually

On Oct 30, 2005

Oh, my gosh! I am eating one of these warm out of the oven right now, and it is HEAVENLY! They are super-moist, and certainly don't taste low-fat at all. I used whole-wheat flour and Splenda instead of sugar, and they came out delightful. I really wanted a healthy banana muffin recipe, as I had three over-ripe bananas to use, but I decided I also wanted oats in them. Thus, when I happened upon this recipe, I was delighted. They're exactly what I was looking for, and made a great dessert! Thank you.

    I really enjoyed these muffins the first time I made them - so I decided to make them again! They're really tasty, healthy, quick to prepare and contain chocolate! Thank you for this great muffin recipe!

    these were great. used splenda instead of sugar and eggbeaters instead of the egg and whole wheat flour to cut the calories a bit. waiting anxiously for the next batch of bananas to ripen so i can make these again.

    I tweaked this recipe even further, as I was aiming toward only 1 Weight Watcher point per muffin...I also used Splends, and used egg substitute, made half of the flour wheat, reduced the choc chips to 1/4 cup, and tossed in a handful of bran....MMMMM! And just cuz I love it, I added 1 tsp vanilla. By the way, they are also good 5 minutes out of the freezer.... Thanks,Graybert, for adding a touch of chocolate to my diet!

    these are incredibly moist. I wanted to eat them all myself. I used half splenda and half suger and I also used walnuts instead of chocolate.

    YUM YUM YUM! I substituted Splenda for the sugar to save 35 calories per muffin, and they taste great. Good way to use up over-ripe bananas and get your chocolate fix all at once!

    These were tasty - made as written. Used mini chocolate chips. Only problem I had was the muffins stuck a bit to the paper liners... Besides that, these were perfect low-fat muffins!! Thanks Graybert!

    I tried this recipe and liked the taste, but found that the muffin is to heavy and pasty. It would be nice if there were some way to make it lighter.

    Easy, good recipe. Mine stuck horribly to the paper baking cups, a real disappointment. I would never use paper cups making this recipe again, as they all had to be thrown out. But, what I did salvage was really good.

    These are great! I used an individual serving of unsweetened applesauce and made 48 mini muffins (baked for 10min). I also added 1tsp of vanilla and 1/2tsp each of cinnamon and nutmeg, but I will leave them out next time (just personal preferenced). I love that these are made with ingredients I always have on hand!
