Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1.5 cups bran cereal
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup skim milk
- 0.5 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 0.25 cup honey
- 1 unit large egg white
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tray with paper liners or grease with a non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, mix together the whole wheat flour, bran cereal, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
In another medium bowl, whisk together the skim milk, unsweetened applesauce, honey, large egg white, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Gently fold in the raisins until evenly distributed.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
