Introduction
These are heavenly! I borrowed the recipe from "Smart Muffins" by Jane Kinderlehrer but modified it a bit. There is no sugar and no white flour in these muffins. These are heavenly!

Ingredients
-
— 1 cup wheat bran
— 1 cup pineapple juice
— 3 eggs
— 2 tablespoons olive oil or canola oil
— 2 tablespoons honey or molasses
— 1/2 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, slightly thawed
— 2 cups sifted whole wheat flour (sift first, then measure)
— 2 tablespoons milk powder (I use instant nonfat dry milk)
— 1/4 cup oat bran
— 1/4 cup lecithin granules
— 2 teaspoons baking powder
— 1 teaspoon baking soda
— 1 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)
— 1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
Directions
Soak the wheat bran in the pineapple juice and set aside for about 10 minutes. In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, oil, honey or molasses and orange juice concentrate. Add the pineapple-bran mixture and mix well.
In a large bowl, combine the wheat flour, milk powder, oat bran, lecithin granules, baking powder and baking soda. Mix well.
Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease 18 muffin tins or line them with paper muffin cups. Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir just until blended. Stir in the coconut and walnuts.
Fill muffin cups 3/4 full. Bake 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
Makes 18 medium-size muffins. Caution: The aroma of these muffins baking may draw folks from miles around.
