Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 cup Wheat bran
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar (packed)
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.75 cup Low-fat milk
• 1 Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Raisins or dried fruit (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, wheat bran, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the applesauce, low-fat milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.

Step 5

If using raisins or dried fruit, fold them in at this stage.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
