Whenever I find myself in front of the pastry case at Starbucks, I can\u2019t fool myself into thinking that the blueberry muffin is going to be a good idea\u2026even when it\u2019s at the airport, I\u2019m headed on vacation and letting myself eat what I want. The calories, the fat, the lack of nutritional value…it’s just, if that’s the route I’m going, I’d rather have a big fat glazed or sugar-raised donut over a muffin most of the time.<\/p>\n

Add to that we\u2019re getting to that point where last year\u2019s blueberries need to be cleared out of the freezer to make room for the new crop. There had to be a compromise. What about a bran muffin? High in fiber. Blueberry bran? Not bad. Three bananas on the counter about to give up the ghost…three Bs it is — banana bran blueberry.<\/p>\n

I did one better and used whole-wheat pastry flour on top of the bran flakes. So there it is – fiber, whole grains and fruit in a moist muffin you won\u2019t regret (too much) later.<\/p>\n\t\r\n\t
