MOIST JUMBO BANANA WHEAT/OAT BRAN MUFFINS



Moist Jumbo Banana Wheat/Oat Bran Muffins image

Moist and flavorful these can be made with oat or wheat bran depending on what you have. You can put your choice of nuts (my fav is walnuts) or dried fruit and vary the amount of mashed banana and they still come out great. Since I started using this recipe 5 years ago, I have kept these muffins on hand in our freezer. I save my brown bananas, freeze them and when I get a good amount puree them in my cuisinart so I can triple the batch of muffins. You can also make these as regular size muffins. The batch would make 12 muffins and bake time would decrease to 15 minutes or so.

WHEAT BRAN MUFFINS RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Wheat Bran Muffins Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by mirelsonp

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup boiling water
1 1/2 cups unprocessed wheat bran, divided
1/4 cup butter, cut up
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup chopped pitted dates
1 cup peeled and chopped apple
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup buttermilk
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tsp. vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat twelve 2 1/2-inch muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray or line with paper bake cups and coat bake cups with cooking spray. Set pan aside. 2. In a small bowl combine the boiling water, 1/2 cup of the wheat bran, and the butter, stirring until butter is melted. 3. In a bowl stir together the remaining 1 cup wheat bran, the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a bowl combine dates, apple, egg, buttermilk, brown sugar, and vanilla. Stir the bran-butter mixture and flour mixture into egg mixture. 4. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each three-fourths full. Bake 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean. Set aside 5 minutes or until cool enough to handle, then remove muffins and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your muffins the best flavor and texture.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: This is important for ensuring that your muffins turn out properly.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups evenly: This will help ensure that your muffins bake evenly.
  • Bake the muffins at the right temperature: The temperature in your oven should be accurate. If your oven is too hot, the muffins will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before storing them: This will help to prevent them from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Wheat bran muffins are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect wheat bran muffins every time.
