How to Make Healthy Multigrain Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour, ½ cup oat bran, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, ½ tsp ground nutmeg, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and ½ tsp salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, lightly beat 1 large egg and 2 large egg whites.
  4. Stir in 1 cup buttermilk, ½ cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 tsp almond extract, 1 tsp vanilla extract, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, and ¼ cup vegetable oil.
  5. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup dried cranberries and ½ cup chopped nuts (almonds, macadamias, or your choice).
  7. Fill muffin cups about ¾ full.
  8. Bake for 20-23 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Enjoy your muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
