I threw together a small batch of "experimental" oat bran muffins this evening. In the morning, before my workout, I like to eat a carby snack to give me energy to fuel me through my workout. I have trouble running on "empty" immediately after waking up, so I decided to give oat bran a try in my baking.  These muffins came out grainy, somewhat dense, and not too sweet. They are more of a pre-workout snack or breakfast-to-go than a dessert. They'll definitely do the trick at 5:30 in the morning!  Oat Bran Muffins 1 cup oat bran (dry) 1/4 cup canned pumpkin 1/2 skim milk 1/8 cup raisins 1/8 cup chopped walnuts 1 tsp. baking powder 1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup 1. Combine ingredients in a large mixing bowl. 2. Divide batter evenly between muffin cups coated with cooking spray. 3. Bake at 425 for 10-15 minutes until muffins are cooked all the way through.  |
