Raspberry Bran Muffins Recipe

Prep/Total Time: 30 min.

Yield: 12 Servings

10 20 30

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup wheat or oat bran
1/4 cup sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup egg substitute
1 cup fat-free milk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup fresh or frozen unsweetened raspberries

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, bran, sugar, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, beat egg substitute, milk and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Gently fold in raspberries.
Coat muffin cups with cooking spray or use paper liners; fill two-thirds full. Bake at 400° for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm. Yield: 1 dozen.

Editor's Note: If using frozen raspberries, use without thawing to avoid discoloring the batter.

Big Batch Baked Goods

We enjoy homemade baked goods for breakfast, but I don’t have time to bake each morning before school. So I devote 1 day a month to making large batches of cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, cream cheese rolls and muffins. I place them in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags labeled with the date. (They freeze for about 2 months.) On busy mornings, it’s a snap to pop a few in the microwave to warm. The kids love the fresh-baked flavor. —Lori T., New London, Texas
