Banana Blueberry Bran Muffins

This recipe is from Peanut Butter Boy.   These muffins make for a great snack and are perfect fuel in the morning before a workout.  We like to enjoy these muffins with a little smear of Peanut Butter or Cream Cheese ;)

2. Combine wheat bran, oat bran, whole wheat pastry flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Combine egg substitute, milk, yogurt, oil, molasses, honey and mashed bananas in a medium bowl.

3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix well. Rinse any ice off of the blueberries and fold them into the batter.
