Pumpkin Bran Muffins Recipes

These are very soft and yummy muffins that just happen to be wonderfully healthy. When cranberries are in season, you can use fresh, but I use frozen ones during the rest of the year. Also, I find oat bran in the bulk bins at my grocery store, but wheat bran or even all whole wheat flour/oat flour should work. You could probably alter these and make blueberry banana or apple ones as well! I'd recommend using a good nonstick or silicone muffin pan for these; they stuck to my paper muffin wrappers a lot when we went to eat them, but everyone was trying to lick the paper clean nevertheless!

Moist & delicious, but also healthy muffins.

Tis the season -- for pumpkin -- combined with bran for a healthy breakfast alternative.

These are very dark chocolate. If you prefer them less dark, substitute flour for some of the cocoa powder.

I've tried many bran muffin recipes over the years, and this is me taking my experience and putting together what I've found to work best as far as flavor and nutritional values are concerned.

These low fat muffins are SO good for you. They pack in fiber and protein without much fat or cholesterol.
They're a personal favorite of mine.

My mother gave me this recipe because she knows how much I adore pumpkin. You can substitute 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon plus 1/4 teaspoon ginger and 1/8 teaspoon EACH nutmeg and cloves can be substituted for 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice.

Pumpkin brings a sweet and unique flavour to these muffins. Butternut is my favourite, but any type will do, including the canned variety. 83 calories, 1 gram of fat and a full 5.6 grams of fibre in each muffin

Great Bran Muffins. Keep the batter in the fridge, and make a fresh batch in the morning.
You can change the fruit filling to anything you have on hand (banana, apples, applesauce, raisins, etc). Omit the chocolate chips for a healthier treat! (we only use the chocolate with pumpkin, as our Thanksgiving breakfast)

I've been experimenting for years, looking for a low calorie but tasty muffin that I can make on my own. I finally found it! These pumpkin muffins are a tasty healthy little snack!

I adapted an old banana loaf recipe that my Mom used to make. I added pumpkin instead of banana, took out a lot of the sugar, substituted half of the flour for bran buds and made an absolutely awesome muffin. Enjoy!
