Chocolate Banana Muffins - 150 calories!

150 Calorie Chocolate Banana Muffins
I'm not quite sure how the author of the original recipe decided that they're 100 calories, but if I enter this recipe into myfitnesspal.com it comes up as a little over 140. So if you add the chocolate drizzle to the top I bet it'd be around 150!

See the original recipe here!

The recipe:
1 egg
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup applesauce
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup mashed ripe bananas (2-3 large bananas)
1 cup flour (original recipe calls for oat flour, I used all purpose)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup cocoa powder
Chocolate chips (optional)

Recipe makes 8-10 regular sized muffins, or 5 in a big muffin tin
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease muffin tin and set aside. In a large bowl, beat egg, sugar, applesauce, vanilla, and bananas. Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder.
Slowly add to wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Bake for 20-25 minutes (regular sized muffins) or 25-30 minutes (big muffins), or until toothpick comes out clean.

Optional if you'd like a couple extra calories - drizzle with melted chocolate. I found these were so sweet and delicious it didn't need it!
