Ingredients
Oat Bran Muffins(The Yeast Connection Cookbook)2/3 cup rolled oats2 tsp. baking soda¾ tsp. unbuffered, corn-free vitamin C crystals (I found these at Jude’s)½ tsp. salt1 ½ tsp. cinnamon½ cup chopped walnuts1 ½ cups oat bran (found this at Jude’s too)1 ½ cups applesauce (natural style) or pureed raw banana½ cup water or Stevia Tea (warm the water and add 1/8 to ½ tsp. stevia and mix until dissolved)¼ cup oil2 eggs, separated
Directions
In a blender, grind the rolled oats, half at a time, into flour. In a small bowl combine the oat flour with baking soda, vitamin C crystals and salt. Add the cinnamon and nuts. Whisk the dry ingredients together and set aside.
Measure the oat bran into a larger bowl. Without washing the blender, combine in it the pureed fruit, water (or stevia tea), oil and egg yolks. Blend for 60 seconds; pour over the oat bran. Stir to blend. Set aside to soak for 10 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400. Prepare a muffin pan with cupcake papers. In a small bowl, beat egg whites until they hold soft peaks.
Working quickly, add the dry ingredients to the bran mixture all at once. Stir to moisten. Fold in the beaten egg whites with a rubber spatula. Divide into 12 muffin cups, pop in the oven for 14- 16 minutes or until light brown and crusty.
Serve with Simply fruit Spread.
These can be made ahead and frozen.
