APPLE RAISIN BRAN MUFFINS (WITH FLAX SEED) image

Categories     Fruit     Breakfast     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Quick & Easy     Muffin     Healthy

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cup raisin bran
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon milled flax seed
3 tablespoons water
1/3 cup milk

Spoon into greased muffin tins up to the lip of the tin. Bake 15-30 minutes, depending on altitude (the higher the altitude, the longer you'll need to cook them).

FLAX, OAT BRAN, BUCKWHEAT, & PUMPKIN MUFFINS



Flax, Oat Bran, Buckwheat, & Pumpkin Muffins image

This recipe is adapted from the a recipe found on the Red Mill, ground Flax meal bag. For a bran muffin, these babies are moist and very tasty. I've cut the white flour by half, and added an equal amount of buckwheat flour. I've also added a can of pumpkin and reduced the amount of milk. These muffins are so fresh and moist that they will only last a few days, so I freeze what we won't eat in a couple of days.

INSANELY HEALTHY VEGAN BRAN FLAX MUFFINS



Insanely Healthy Vegan Bran Flax Muffins image

I heavily modified this recipe from Jane Massey at allrecipes.com. http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Bran-Flax-Muffins/Detail.aspx I was on the hunt for the healthiest muffins ever and I couldn't find the right recipe, so I decided to mess with that one. Although, I am not vegan my roommate is and I knew I would need her help with the eating. These are sooo delicious! I went into these thinking they would be barely edible, but they ended up being really, really great and (or although) they do taste healthy. So if you don't like healthy food, this may not be the recipe for you!

BRAN FLAX MUFFINS



BRAN FLAX MUFFINS image

Categories     Egg     Bake     High Fiber     Muffin

Yield 15 - 18 medium muffins

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
3/4 cup Brown Flaxseed Meal
3/4 cup Oat Bran Cereal
1/2 cup Brown Sugar (light or dark) OR 1/2 cup Jam or Jelly any flavor
2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Salt
2 tsp Cinnamon, Saigon (Premium)
1 1/2 cups finely shredded Carrots
2 peeled and shredded Apples
1/2 cup Raisins (optional)
1/2 cup chopped Nuts
3/4 cup Milk or Yogurt (if using jam, reduce liquid ingredient to 1/2 cup)
2 beaten Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla
(totally optional) 2 tbsp Butter or Peanut butter or a combo

Steps:

  • Directions Mix together dry ingredients: flour, Bob's Red Mill Flaxseed Meal, oat bran, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl. Stir in carrots, apples, raisins (if desired) and nuts. In a separate bowl, combine liquid ingredients: milk (or yogurt), Jelly (if you are using instead of brown sugar), beaten eggs, vanilla (and optional butter/peanut butter). Pour liquid ingredients into dry ingredients. Stir JUST until dry ingredients become moistened. DO NOT OVER MIX. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full. Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes. Notes: You can also use 1 1/2 cups Unbleached White Flour in place of the Whole Wheat Pastry Flour. For a twist on this great recipe- try substituting 3/4 cup Hazelnut Meal in place of the Oat Bran.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bran. There are various types of bran available, including wheat bran, oat bran, and rice bran. For this recipe, wheat bran is the best choice because it provides a nutty flavor and a chewy texture.
  • Use fresh flaxseed. Ground flaxseed can go rancid quickly, so it's important to use fresh flaxseed for the best flavor and nutritional value.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter can result in tough muffins. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before serving. This will allow the muffins to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

Bran flax muffins are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They are packed with fiber, protein, and healthy fats, and they are also a good source of vitamins and minerals. These muffins are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying breakfast or snack, give bran flax muffins a try.
