APPLE OATMEAL 3 POINT WEIGHT WATCHERS MUFFINS



Apple Oatmeal 3 Point Weight Watchers Muffins image

These are easy and turned out beautifully on my first attempt! If I made them in jumbo muffin tins (which yes, I own!) they would be Starbucks worthy at a fraction of the cost and sooooo low fat! Jumbo would only be 6 points (compared to McDonalds low fat 9 point muffins or fruit and fibre for 12). I used granny smith apples but you can use any.

This is not OATMEAL, but oat BRAN muffins. I have made these for about five years now, and I really love them. They are great made with cinnamon or cranberry applesauce, as well as plain applesauce. My daughter loves them and I hope you will enjoy them, too!

OAT BRAN MUFFINS (WEIGHT WATCHERS 3 POINTS)



Oat Bran Muffins (Weight Watchers 3 Points) image

I got this from a Weight Watcher meeting. If made as shown, 1 mini-muffin is 0 points; full-sized muffins are 3 points, They are tasty, have a great texture, and smell wonderful when baking. There is no need to use muffin liners; these just slide right out of the pan. I know there are a ton of bran muffin recipes; I think the flax sees in this recipe makes it uniqe.

WW INSTANT OATMEAL MUFFINS (1 WW POINT EACH)



Ww Instant Oatmeal Muffins (1 Ww Point Each) image

I just started weight watchers and wanted a muffin for breakfast. Other recipes called for things I didn't have so I designed my own recipe with what I had in the kitchen. These are moist and sweet enough to please and my 1 year old and 3 year old loved them. They definitely stick to paper muffin cups a little so I think I'll try skipping the paper cups next time and opt for just the muffin pan and some cooking spray.

WEIGHT WATCHERS BRAN MUFFINS RECIPE - (3.6/5)



Weight Watchers Bran Muffins Recipe - (3.6/5) image

Provided by cook_kjacook_kja

Number Of Ingredients 11

1-20 Oz box Raisin Bran cereal
2 1/2 C sugar or splenda
5 C flour
5 Tsp baking soda
2 1/2 Tsp salt
1/3 C walnuts, chopped and toasted
1 Qt low fat buttermilk
1-20 Oz can crushed pineapple, undrained
2 whole eggs
3 egg whites
1/2 C canola oil

Steps:

  • Pour cereal into a large bowl; add sugar and stir. Sift flour, baking soda and salt into cereal mixture. Add walnuts and stir. In a separate large mixing bowl, mix buttermilk, pineapple, eggs, egg whites and oil. Stir until completely incorporated. Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients, stir until completely incorporated. Bake in sprayed muffin pans (or use cupcake papers) filling each 2/3 full. Bake at 305F for 20-25 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Batter can be refrigerated for up to 6 weeks. Points: 3 per muffin

Tips for Making the Best Oat Bran Muffins:

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas add natural sweetness and moisture to the muffins, reducing the need for added sugar. They also help bind the ingredients together.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough, dense muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a muffin scoop: A muffin scoop helps ensure that the muffins are all the same size and shape, which promotes even baking.
  • Fill the muffin cups to the top: This will give the muffins a nice, rounded shape and prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: A high oven temperature helps the muffins rise quickly and develop a crispy crust.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before serving: This will help them set and firm up.

Conclusion:

These oat bran muffins are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They're packed with fiber, protein, and healthy fats, and they're low in sugar and calories. Plus, they're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast or snack, give these oat bran muffins a try. You won't be disappointed!
