How to Make Low Fat Blueberry Bran Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
  2. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup wheat bran and 1/2 cup milk. Let stand for 10 minutes to soften the bran.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 large egg, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Beat in the softened bran mixture until well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Gently fold in 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries.
  8. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The tops should spring back when lightly touched.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
