Ingredients

  • 1-3/4 cups All-Bran
  • 1-1/4 cups fat-free evaporated milk
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 egg whites, lightly beaten

Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine the bran, milk, applesauce, butter and almond extract; let stand for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl; stir in egg whites and bran mixture. Fill muffin cups coated with cooking spray two-thirds full.
