Quick Oat Bran and Banana Muffins

Recipe #120465 | 30 min | 10 min prep | add private note

A delicious way to add healthy oat bran to your diet. I like the chopped bananas in these, rather than the usual mashed, as I like running across the small bits of banana. This is a recipe from Bon Appetit that I have changed somewhat to suit my taste.

SERVES 12 , 12 muffins (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 400F; grease 12 (1/3 cup) muffin cups or use muffin liners.
  2. 2
    Combine first 6 ingredients in a large bowl.
  3. 3
    Put milk, oil, egg and vanilla in medium bowl and whisk to blend.
  4. 4
    Add milk mixture to dry ingredients, stirring just until combined; mix in banana, being careful not to overmix.
  5. 5
    Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.
  6. 6
    Bake about 20 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into centers of muffins comes out clean.
  7. 7
    Transfer to rack to cool.

I love this recipe! These muffins are much more moist than some other bran muffin recipes I have tried. The only changes I made were substituting 1/4 cup applesauce for the oil and half of the flour with whole-wheat flour. They freeze wonderfully, so I will keep a constant supply of these in my freezer . . . I'll just pull one out for each day! Thanks for sharing, GaylaJ.

    These are yummy. I made a few little changes, I used two egg whites instead of one whole egg and 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt instead off the oil and added raisins. They came out good. I will make again for sure.

    I have used this recipe several times and tomorrow will make 4 dozen and freeze. It is an excellent recipe, but to make it lower fat I substituted the oil with low fat yogurt. I have used whole wheat flour as well, either way this is my favorite muffin recipe! I have never had them turn out dry, and suggest to anyone who has that they probably baked them a little too long!
