Ingredients

    1 cup white whole-wheat flour
    1/2 cup wheat germ or wheat bran or bran cereal
    1/2 cup oatmeal
    1/3 cup packed brown sugar
    1 tsp baking powder
    1/2 tsp baking soda
    1/2-1 tsp cinnamon
    1/2 c yogurt (or buttermilk)
    2T oil
    2 large egg whites
    3/4 cup mashed banana (or applesauce)
    1/3 cup chopped dried fruit (I used currants and chopped dates)

Directions

Makes 12 muffins or 24 mini muffins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a muffin pan with cooking spray or line with muffin liners.

Combine the flour, oatmeal, bran, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and dried fruit in a medium mixing bowl.

In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the yogurt, oil, egg white, and mashed banana, then add to the dry ingredients.

Mix everything together with a wooden spoon until combined, but avoid over mixing.

Divide the batter evenly into prepared muffin tins, and bake for 18-20 minutes (9-14 minutes for mini muffins) or until tops are slightly golden and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out fairly clean.

Place pan on a cooling rack and prop muffins sideways to allow to cool for at least 5 minutes.

Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. May be frozen in plastic bags.
