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
1 egg
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup margarine
2 apples, peeled and chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine dry ingredients into large bowl. Combine wet ingredients into smaller bowl. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. 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). To keep the ultimate amount of moisture while storing, place the muffins into a ziplock bag immediately after removing them from the oven (while still piping hot). Note: If you don't have flax seed, add another egg and don't add the 3 tablespoons of water. Note: The brown sugar can be substituted with the same amount of maple syrup.

Tips:

  • Use fresh flax seeds: They provide a better flavor and texture to the muffins.
  • Grind the flax seeds finely: This helps them absorb more liquid and blend better into the batter.
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before baking: Doing this allows the flaxseeds to absorb more moisture, resulting in a moist and fluffy muffin.
  • Bake the muffins at the right temperature and time: Overbaking can dry them out, so keep an eye on them and remove them from the oven once they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Enjoy the muffins fresh: Flaxseed bran muffins are best eaten the day they are made, as they tend to dry out over time.
