HEARTY BREAKFAST MUFFINS



Hearty Breakfast Muffins image

Healthy, hearty breakfast muffins. These have a lightly sweet flavor and lots of wholesome ingredients to get your day started. Moist, chewy, and not overly dense. Easily customizable! You can use any flavor of yogurt, but I prefer plain Greek yogurt. Customize with your favorite nuts or seeds, zucchini or squash, cooked sweet potato, raisins or cranberries, etc. Enjoy!

Time 55m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 19

½ cup raisins
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
⅔ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground allspice
½ cup nonfat dry milk powder
¼ cup toasted wheat germ
¼ cup wheat bran
3 tablespoons uncooked farina hot cereal (such as Cream of Wheat®)
3 egg whites
1 ¼ cups unsweetened applesauce
1 large carrot, peeled and shredded
⅓ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup bran cereal
3 tablespoons raw sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 18 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • In a small bowl, cover the raisins with water, and set aside to plump. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, dry milk powder, wheat bran, and farina cereal until thoroughly combined.
  • Drain water from the raisins. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy, then mix in the drained raisins, applesauce, carrot, vegetable oil, and bran cereal. Pour the liquid ingredients into the flour mixture, and briefly mix just to moisten (do not overmix). Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full, and sprinkle each muffin with about 1/2 teaspoon of raw sugar.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the muffins are set and the tops are golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin should come out clean. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use bread flour for a chewier muffin. Bread flour has a higher protein content than all-purpose flour, which results in a muffin with a more chewy texture.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will result in a tough muffin. Mix it just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place. This will help the muffins to rise properly and develop a light and fluffy texture.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust and a light and fluffy interior.
  • Don't overbake the muffins. Overbaking the muffins will result in a dry and crumbly muffin. Bake them just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

These hearty English muffins are a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain or topped with your favorite spreads or fillings, these muffins are sure to be a hit.
