Time 52m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½ cups bran flakes cereal, slightly crushed
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup granular sucralose sweetener (such as Splenda®)
½ cup ground flax seed
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
3 egg whites
1 cup 1% buttermilk
¼ cup honey
¼ cup unsweetened applesauce
1 (6 ounce) package dried cranberries
2 tablespoons whole flax seeds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line cups with paper liners.
  • Combine crushed bran flakes, whole wheat flour, sucralose, ground flax seed, all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Make a well in the middle of the mixture.
  • Whisk egg whites together lightly in a bowl until foamy. Mix in buttermilk, honey, and applesauce. Pour mixture into the well and blend batter until just moistened. Fold in cranberries.
  • Fill muffin cups 3/4 full with batter; sprinkle tops with whole flax seeds.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes.
