1.25 cup(s) Dried mixed fruit coarsely chopped
1 cup(s) Uncooked old fashioned oats
0.75 cup(s) Uncooked oat bran
0.5 cup(s) All-purpose flour
1 tbsp(s) All-purpose flour
3 tbsp(s) Packed light brown sugar
5 tsp(s) Baking powder
1 tsp(s) Ground cinnamon
1 cup(s) Fat free skim milk

2 tbsp(s) Vegetable oil
0.75 large Banana(s) or 1 medium, mashed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray or line with foil or paper liners.
  • Combine the dried fruit, rolled oats, oat bran, flour, banana, brown sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is just blended, then transfer to a bowl.
  • Combine the milk, orange juice, egg whites, oil, and orange zest in another bowl. Add the milk mixture to the dried fruit mixture; stir just until blended.
  • Spoon the batter into cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake until surface of the muffins are golden brown and spring back when lightly pressed, or until a toothpick inserted in a muffin comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Remove from the pan and cool on a rack 10 minutes before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

OAT BRAN MUFFINS (WEIGHT WATCHERS 3 POINTS)



Oat Bran Muffins (Weight Watchers 3 Points) image

I got this from a Weight Watcher meeting. If made as shown, 1 mini-muffin is 0 points; full-sized muffins are 3 points, They are tasty, have a great texture, and smell wonderful when baking. There is no need to use muffin liners; these just slide right out of the pan. I know there are a ton of bran muffin recipes; I think the flax sees in this recipe makes it uniqe.

APPLE OATMEAL 3 POINT WEIGHT WATCHERS MUFFINS



Apple Oatmeal 3 Point Weight Watchers Muffins image

These are easy and turned out beautifully on my first attempt! If I made them in jumbo muffin tins (which yes, I own!) they would be Starbucks worthy at a fraction of the cost and sooooo low fat! Jumbo would only be 6 points (compared to McDonalds low fat 9 point muffins or fruit and fibre for 12). I used granny smith apples but you can use any.

LOW FAT (BUT TASTY!) BUTTERMILK APPLE BRAN MUFFINS WW FRIENDLY



Low Fat (But Tasty!) Buttermilk Apple Bran Muffins Ww Friendly image

A healthier variation of my Recipe #101530. I have found they are a perfect WW 2 Points Plus snack after a workout. (They are 3 points plus with the oats added.) They also are very good for keeping your system regular when you are limiting your fat intake. ;) You can keep the batter in the refrigerator for several days and bake them as you need them, but they also freeze really well. (If you don't have fat free buttermilk, place 2 Tbls. of vinegar or lemon juice in a measuring cup then add low fat milk until it totals 2 cups altogether.) Sometimes I get bored with the original plain muffins and add some or all of the optional ingredients. I've also started adding 1 cup of old fashioned oats to mimic nuts in the muffins. They are delicious with WW's cream cheese on them too. PLEASE NOTE: wheat bran is NOT cereal. I buy mine at the bulk food store, and it looks like sawdust. Oat bran can be used in its place but the muffins aren't as tasty IMHO.
