Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 eggs
1 cup applesauce (unsweetened)
3/4 cup maple syrup or honey
2 tbsp unsulphured molasses
1/4 cup avocado or olive oil
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups oat bran
1 1/4 cups whole wheat or spelt flour
1/4 cup flaxseed
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup raisins
1/3 cup Medjool dates (pitted & chopped)
1/3 cup walnuts (coarsely chopped)
Cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F, line 12 muffin tin with unbleached parchment paper muffin liners and spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add eggs, applesauce, maple syrup, molasses, oil and vanilla extract; whisk well to combine. Set aside.
  • In another medium mixing bowl, add oat bran, flour, flaxseed, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir with spatula to mix until no lumps, transfer to a bowl with wet ingredients and stir gently just enough to combine. Do not over mix and let batter sit for a few minutes to thicken, then stir a few more times.
  • Add raisins, dates and walnuts. Stir a few times just enough to incorporate.
  • Using an ice cream scoop, divide batter evenly between 12 openings of a muffin tin and bake for 10 minutes in preheated to 425 degrees F oven. Reduce heat to 375 degrees F (no need to wait for oven to cool off) and bake for another 10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
  • Remove muffins from the oven, let muffins cool for about 5 minutes and transfer to a cooling rack to cool off a bit more.

OAT BRAN FRUIT MUFFINS



Oat Bran Fruit Muffins image

I recently tried PaulaG's Pumpkin Fruit and Nut Muffins (#116356) and loved the wonderful moistness given to these by the apricots and raisins. So much so, I went looking through my cookbooks for recipes that might capture that same delightful quality. The original comes from "The 250 Best Muffin Recipes" but I've already started tweaking it a bit here. This has been updated since Roosie's review.

Time 40m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups oat bran
1/4 cup oatmeal, regular not instant
1/2 cup mixed dried fruit (if you can't find pre-mixed dried fruit, make your own combination or use raisins)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 egg whites
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/3 cup brown sugar (use a half cup if you like your muffins sweeter)
1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk (or use 1/3 cup non-fat yogurt plus skim milk to level it off to 1/2 cup)
2 tablespoons canola oil
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees (180c).
  • In one bowl combine all of the dry ingredients - oat bran, oatmeal, fruit, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In a second bowl, lightly beat the egg whites by hand. Whisk in the yogurt, oil, applesauce and brown sugar. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just mix. Do not over beat as it will result in a tough lumpy muffin.
  • Spoon batter into lightly sprayed muffin tin. (Use paper liners if you prefer.) Bake 33 to 38 minutes, toothpick should be clean.

This is not OATMEAL, but oat BRAN muffins. I have made these for about five years now, and I really love them. They are great made with cinnamon or cranberry applesauce, as well as plain applesauce. My daughter loves them and I hope you will enjoy them, too!
