DOUBLE-APPLE BRAN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with baking cups, or lightly brush with butter. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, wheat bran, millet, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together butter, brown sugar, egg, and applesauce. Stir wet ingredients into dry until just combined. Fold in apple.
• Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Bake until golden and tops spring back when lightly touched, about 24 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in tin, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.

UPPER CRUST BAKERY APPLE-BRAN MUFFINS

Steps:

• In a large bowl blend together the first ten (dry) ingredients.
• In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients (wet ingredients), and mix well.
• Add the wet ingredients to the bowl with the dry ingredients, and mix until the dry ingredients are just moistened.
• Do not overmix.
• Refrigerate batter overnight.
• Muffin batter can be kept refrigerated for about 1 week.
• To bake, spray the top of the muffin pan (s) with non-stick spray.
• Line the cups with paper liners.
• Fill each cup to the rim with muffin batter.
• Bake at 400 degree F.
• 25-30 minutes.
• Muffins are done when firm and just lightly colored around edges.
• The tops will overflow when baked to meet other muffins.
• Cut apart to serve.

PUMPKIN-APPLE BRAN MUFFINS

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.
