How to Make Healthy Wheat Bran Flax Meal Muffins
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup wheat bran (or ground high-fiber cereal), ½ cup milk, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Let sit for 5 minutes to soften the bran.
- In a large bowl, whisk 1 large egg until light and fluffy.
- Add ½ cup sweetener (honey, applesauce, or maple syrup), 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed meal, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon cinnamon. Beat until well combined.
- Pour the wet bran mixture into the large bowl with the egg mixture. Stir gently to combine.
- Gradually add 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fill each muffin cup about ⅔ full.
- Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with ¼ cup rolled oats.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
