Low-Fat High Fiber Blueberry Bran Muffins image

These muffins are a great low-fat moist muffin. I used 1/2 cup brown sugar instead of the 2/3 cup called for and I felt they were sweet enough. I also added chopped apples.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups wheat bran (I used oat bran)
1 cup nonfat milk
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 egg
2/3 cup brown sugar (I used 1/2 cup)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup blueberries (I added a chopped apple.)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Grease muffin cups or use paper muffin liners.
  • Mix together wheat bran and milk, and let stand for 10 minutes. (I didn't do this and muffins turned out fine.).
  • In a large bowl, mix together applesauce, egg, brown sugar, and vanilla.
  • Beat in bran mixture.
  • Sift together all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  • Stir into bran mixture until just blended. Fold in blueberries.
  • Scoop into muffin cups.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until tops spring back when lightly tapped.
