Kitten’s Fat Free Bran Muffins
Test Kitchen Notes; reduce flour amount 2 tablespoons and add in 2 tablespoons flax, a great addition is 1-1/2 cups fresh blueberries or 1/2 to 3/4 cup raisins mixed into the flour mixture, if using blueberries you will yield 12 muffins
Yield 10 muffins
INGREDIENTS:
1-1/2 cups wheat bran
3/4 cup fat-free milk
6 tablespoons fat-free plain or blueberry flavored yogurt
1/2 cup applesauce
1 large egg
3/4 cup brown sugar (if you prefer a sweet muffin use 3/4 cup if not you may reduce slightly)
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 to 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional I like to add it in)
INSTRUCTIONS:———————————
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Set oven rack to second-lowest position
Grease 10 regular-size muffin tins or line with paper liners.

In a large bowl whisk the applesauce with egg, brown sugar and vanilla; mix in the bran mixture until thoroughly combined.
In a small bowl combine the flour with baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon, then mix in the blueberries; add the bran mixture to the dry mixture; using a small spatula fold gently just until combined (fold gently).
Scoop into muffin tins filling almost to the top.

These muffins just came from the oven about a half hour ago. They are insanely good! Very moist and flavorful. I used one teaspoon cinnamon, cherry yogurt (that’s all I had) and dried cherries instead of blueberries. This is a wonderful breakfast muffin, or lunch…or snack…:) Thanks Kitt!
These muffins were very moist and so good. I did add the cinnamon and also added blueberries as I used plain fat-free yogurt. My DH is claiming all of them so I had to hide a few for my enjoyment. Thanks so much for posting Kitten.
These turned out delciously moist and full of fruity flavor. I used blueberry yogurt and blackberries from the freezer. I didn’t have wheatbran and so used oat and also a flour mix of flax, white and wheat flour. A great muffin that makes for a nice snack anytime of day.
