PUMPKIN OAT BRAN BREAD OR MUFFINS
Not your typical muffin, but they pack in 5 grams of fiber per muffin and are low calorie/fat. Oh and they taste great too! For even more fiber add the wheat germ. I make double batches and freeze half of them for down the road. Scale recipe back to 12 if you only want to make 1 muffin tray of these.

FLAX, OAT BRAN, BUCKWHEAT, & PUMPKIN MUFFINS
This recipe is adapted from the a recipe found on the Red Mill, ground Flax meal bag. For a bran muffin, these babies are moist and very tasty. I've cut the white flour by half, and added an equal amount of buckwheat flour. I've also added a can of pumpkin and reduced the amount of milk. These muffins are so fresh and moist that they will only last a few days, so I freeze what we won't eat in a couple of days.

HEALTHY PUMPKIN BRAN CREAM CHEESE MUFFINS
These are my favorite fall/winter muffin. This is a mixture of recipe #204128 and recipe #189156. Delicious! And these are great, full of protein and fibre. You can feel good eating these! Note: if you arent a cheese fan, you may want to use less cheese. Put in how much looks right to your taste. Also, these are not overly sweet so add more sugar if you wish.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350. Combine all dry ingredients and all wet ingredients, excluding the pumpkin and apple, in two seperate mixing bowls.
- Add to the dry ingredients the pumpkin and apple, and mix until combined well.
- Add the wet ingredients to this mixture.
- Spray with cooking spray your muffin pan or loaf pan, and bake for 30 minutes at 350, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Note that these don't rise much and stay a relatively dark color; they are a moist muffin.
- Additional Notes: May be beneficial to use half whole wheat flour and half white or all purpose, so they rise more/are a bit lighter. They taste great but aren't the prettiest things ;-) I ended up dividing the batter between three mini loaf "pans" instead of muffins, but it should make about 12 medium sized muffins.
