Oatbran Muffins

By Fiona Haynes, About.com

My husband never leaves home without one. These easy-to-make berry-filled muffins are denser than most, thanks to the oatbran, which is a great source of fiber.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 23 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/4 cups oatbran
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 2 large over-ripe bananas, chopped
  • 1 1/4 cups fat-free milk
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries or raspberries

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees and fill muffin tin with paper liners.

Combine oatbran and baking powder in a large bowl.

Place chopped bananas, milk, maple syrup and egg whites in a blender. Blend until smooth and frothy.

Pour blender contents into oatbran and mix until dry ingredients are moist. Stir in berries, and fill muffin cases evenly with mixture.

Bake at 450 degrees for 22-25 minutes, until the tops are brown

Makes 12 muffins.
