Ingredients

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup uncooked oat bran cereal
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup egg substitute
1/4 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup dried peaches or apricots, finely chopped

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. In a small bowl, combine the water, orange juice, egg substitute, oil and vanilla. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in peaches and pecans.
