Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Oat bran
- 1 cup Wheat bran
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Packed brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat bran and wheat bran. Pour the milk over the brans and stir until well mixed. Let it sit for 5 minutes to soften.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
To the bran mixture, add the egg, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. Stir until combined.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the muffins tender.
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Enjoy your wholesome and delicious Blueberry Double Bran Muffins!
