MORNING GLORY BRAN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Oil muffin tins or use liners.
• Combine wheat bran and buttermilk. Mix and set aside for 10 minutes.
• Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and sugar.
• Mix together the add-ins (carrot, coconut, nuts, and raisins) in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Mix together the molasses, oil, and egg. Add in the bran and buttermilk, combining until the ingredients are a uniform, dark mixture.
• Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ones, just until they are barely combined.
• Gently mix the add-ins into the batter. Scoop out the batter by tablespoons full into the prepared muffin tins.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes in the center of the oven until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean. If possible, put a rimmed cookie sheet under the muffin tin so the bottom of the muffins do not get too dark.
• Cool for 10-15 minutes in pans before removing muffins.

MORNING GLORY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚ and arrange two racks evenly spaced in the oven. Line two muffin pans with paper muffin cups.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil and vanilla. Add the carrots, apple, pineapple, pecans, coconut and raisins and stir together. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until combined. Scoop the batter with a standard (2 1/4-inch) ice cream scoop (I use rounded scoops of batter) into the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Place the pans on a baking rack to cool and serve the muffins warm or at room temperature.

MORNING GLORY BRAN MUFFINS

Steps:

• In medium bowl, combine cereal and milk. Let stand for about 2 minutes or until cereal softens.
• In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
• Add egg, oil and carrot to cereal mixture; beat well. Add liquid mixture to dry ingredients, stirring only until just combined. Fold in mixture of raisins, almonds, sunflower seeds and ¼ cup (50 mL) coconut. Portion batter evenly into 12 (2½"/6.5 cm) non-stick muffin pan cups, lightly coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle each with portion of remaining coconut.
• Bake in 400°F (200°C) oven for 20 minutes or until tops spring back when lightly touched.
• You can substitute about 1 cup (250 mL) of your choice of chopped dried fruits and nuts if you don't have raisins, almonds, sunflower seeds and coconut on hand. These ingredients - along with the bran - contribute dietary fibre, which is part of a healthy diet.

• Fill each muffin cup with 1/4 cup batter. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of a muffin comes out clean, 23 to 25 minutes. Serve muffins warm or at room temperature.

HEALTHIER MORNING GLORY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat over to 400 degrees F.
• On a baking sheet, spread a layer of coconut and sunflower seeds. I placed coconut on one side and sunflower seeds on the other, but ended up mixing them together lated on. These will toast very quickly, so make sure they don't burn!
• Meanwhile, you can start grating the apples and the carrots. Place in a large mixing bowl, and add raisins to the mixture. When the coconut and sunflower seeds are toasted, put 3/4 of them in with the apples and carrots, and reserve 1/4 for a topping. In the same bowl, mix in the milk, eggs, vanilla, and oil.
• In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Next, add the whole wheat flour, all of the spices, brown sugar, and cane or white sugar, mix thoroughly.
• Put in lined paper muffin cups, and bake in pre-heated oven for ~15-20 minutes. They are done when a toothpick comes out clean.
• Enjoy!
