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.
