Lorna’s Oatbran Maple Muffins
This is my own recipe. I developed it many years ago. It is low in fat.
Oven 375 degrees F
1-1/2 Cups oatbran
1 Cup white flour
1 tsp. baking powder
¾ Cup maple syrup
1 tsp. of olive or vegetable oil
1 tsp. baking soda mixed with
1 Cup milk
½-1 cup dried fruit (currants, sultanas cranberries, blueberries), or fresh blueberries*
Use medium sized bowl. Stir dry ingredients using a wooden spoon. Stir in wet ingredients. Stir lightly, muffins do not require a lot of mixing. Stir in your dried fruit. Line your muffin pans with paper liners, or grease the pans. Fill the muffin cups to the top. Bake for approximately18 minutes, until the tops of the muffins are lightly browned.
*If using fresh blueberries, fill the muffin cup halfway, put on a layer of blueberries and top off with enough batter to fill the muffin cup. Mixing fresh blueberries into the batter causes color streaking, which isn’t attractive.
