Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups wheat bran (2 1/2 ounces)
1 cup buttermilk, preferably full fat
1 1/2 cups all purpose white flour (4 1/2 ounces)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt, preferably fine sea salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup granulated sugar (1 3/4 ounces)
1/4-1/3 cup unsulphured (not blackstrap) molasses (I used 1/3 cup. For a less strong molasses flavor, use 1/4 cup. )
1/4 cup of vegetable oil (I used canola)
1 large egg
1/2 cup shredded carrots (1 1/2 ounces. About 1 large carrot.)
1/2 cup shredded, sweetened coconut (1 3/4 ounces)
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts and/or pecans (2 ounces)
1/2 cup raisins (3 ounces. I used a combination of dark and yellow raisins. )

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Oil muffin tins or use liners.
  • Combine wheat bran and buttermilk. Mix and set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and sugar.
  • Mix together the add-ins (carrot, coconut, nuts, and raisins) in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Mix together the molasses, oil, and egg. Add in the bran and buttermilk, combining until the ingredients are a uniform, dark mixture.
  • Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ones, just until they are barely combined.
  • Gently mix the add-ins into the batter. Scoop out the batter by tablespoons full into the prepared muffin tins.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes in the center of the oven until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean. If possible, put a rimmed cookie sheet under the muffin tin so the bottom of the muffins do not get too dark.
  • Cool for 10-15 minutes in pans before removing muffins.

FLAX N' FIBER MORNING GLORY MUFFINS



Flax N' Fiber Morning Glory Muffins image

This is a recipe I found using Fiber One bran cereal. I'm trying to get more whole grains and fiber in my family and this one is a winner! Each muffin has about 5 grams of fiber and because of the cereal being fortified with vitamins, and the milk they contain calcim, folic acid, iron and Vitamin A.
