Yield Makes 9

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil, plus more for oiling pans
1 cup unprocessed wheat bran
1/2 cup prune juice
1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt
1/2 cup currants
3 tablespoons unsulfured molasses
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil nine standard-size muffin cups, or line them with paper liners.
  • Combine wheat bran, prune juice, yogurt, currants, molasses, oil, egg, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Let stand for 10 minutes.

  • Turn muffins out of the pan, and let them cool on a rack.

These muffins are a great way to use up leftover bran cereal. They are also a good source of fiber and antioxidants.

I'm not a big fan of bran muffins, but these were actually really good. The currants add a nice sweetness and the muffins are really moist.
