Time 1h4m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups all-bran cereal
1/2 cup boiling water
1 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 egg, beaten
1 1/4 cups unsifted all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar (I use half Splenda and half sugar.)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup finely chopped dried apricot
all-bran cereal, for topping

Steps:

  • Combine the 1-1/2 cup cereal and boiling water in a medium bowl; blend well and allow to cool.
  • Add buttermilk, oil and egg; blending well.
  • Combine the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt in medium bowl; stir in cereal mixture, mini chips and chopped apricots.
  • Stir until moistened.
  • Spray six 5- to 6-oz custard cups with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Fill each cup half full with batter and sprinkle each with 2 tsp.
  • bran flake cereal.
  • Microwave on high for 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 minutes, turning 1/4 turn at end of each minute, or until wooden toothpick inserted off center comes out clean.
  • Tops will appear moist, let them stand several miutes.
  • Repeat the cooking procedure for remaining batter or place the left over batter in the fridge and store for another day.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients, especially bran, baking powder, and eggs, will ensure that your muffins are light and fluffy.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: This will help them to rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before serving: This will allow them to set and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

Chocolate chip bran muffins are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They're packed with fiber, which can help to keep you feeling full and satisfied. And they're also a good source of antioxidants, which can help to protect your cells from damage. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast or snack, try these chocolate chip bran muffins.
