Apple Bran Muffins image

This is a nice change from a plain bran muffin. It's somewhat healthier, because it's made with yogurt. I always double the cinnamon sugar on top (personal preference). Sometimes I add some chopped pecans (or walnuts). Don't let the long list of ingredients scare you - these come together fast.

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400*. Mix flours, bran, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda & salt together in a large bowl.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the egg, brown sugar and oil. Stir in the yogurt, apple juice & apple.
