BLUE SKY BRAN MUFFINS RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Blue Sky Bran Muffins Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-49368

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/3 cups (315 ml) buttermilk (you can also use sour cream or yogurt thinned with a little milk)
1 large egg
1/3 cup (80 ml) oil (such as vegetable, safflower, sunflower or olive oil)
1/4 cup (50 grams) lightly packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract, a little citrus zest (optional flavorings to add)
1 1/2 cups (90 grams) wheat bran*
1 cup (125 grams) all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons (8 grams) baking powder (preferably aluminum-free)
1 1/2 teaspoons (8 grams) baking soda
1/4 teaspoon table salt
2 teaspoons (10 grams) granulated sugar, divided
3/4 to 1 cup chopped mixed fruit (just about anything but citrus or pineapple will work, they say; frozen berries are fine)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees F and coat a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray. Whisk buttermilk, egg, oil, brown sugar and any vanilla or citrus zest you'd like to use in a small bowl. Whisk bran, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Stir wet mixture into dry until just combined and still a bit rough. Spoon two 2 tablespoons of batter into each prepared muffin cup. Add about 2 teaspoons fruit to each (dividing it evenly) and sprinkling the fruit with one of the teaspoons of granulated sugar. Spoon remaining batter (about 1 tablespoon each) over fruit and sprinkle tops of muffins with remaining teaspoon of granulated sugar. Bake muffins for a total of 16 to 18 minutes, rotating pan once midway through baking time for even browning, until a toothpick inserted into the center of muffins comes out with just a few crumbs attached. Do not overbake. Let muffins cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes before removing from tin. Do ahead: Muffins keep for 3 days at room temperature, longer in the freezer. * I didn't try it, but I suspect that oats pulsed in a food processor until a cornmeal-like consistency or even that 7-grain cereal mix we used for this whole-grain cinnamon swirl bread would work here. Let us know if you audition it. I used Bob's Red Mill brand wheat bran.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup vegetable oil, plus extra for greasing the pan
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
7 ounces Greek yogurt
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup honey
2 extra-large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups wheat bran
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries (8 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush the top of a muffin pan with vegetable oil and line it with 12 paper liners.
  • Stir together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, whisk together the yogurt, sugar, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, honey, eggs, and vanilla until combined. Add the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Gently stir in the wheat bran and blueberries until combined.
  • Scoop the batter into the muffin cups with a rounded 2 1/4-inch ice cream scoop. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and a cake tester comes out clean. Allow to cool for 5 minutes and serve warm or at room temperature.

Bake a batch of better-for-you breakfast muffins by using oil instead of butter, swapping out some of the sugar for maple syrup, and adding nutty, nutritious bran.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Yield Makes 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup safflower (or other vegetable oil)
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1/2 cup wheat bran or wheat germ

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Separately beat together the eggs, maple syrup, sugar, oil, and milk. Stir the egg mixture into the flour mixture. Stir in the berries and bran. Fill the muffin cups three-quarters full.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan before removing.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: This will help them rise quickly and give them a tender crumb.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly.
  • Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Blue sky bran muffins are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. They're packed with whole grains, fruit, and vegetables, and they're a good source of fiber, potassium, and vitamin C. They're also easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying breakfast or snack, give these blue sky bran muffins a try.
