Bran Muffins with Honey

I love these muffins as a dessert after dinner. Most people probably don't think of a bran muffin as a dessert, but with the little bit of added honey, one of these muffins warmed up is FABULOUS as a snack. And....it's GOOD for you!!

1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups oat bran cereal (I use Hodgson Mill)

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

1 1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt 2 eggs (or 4 egg whites)
1 1/4 cups unsweetened coconut milk

4 Tbsp. grape seed oil


Mix all of the dry ingredients together, making sure all of the lumps are out of the brown sugar. I like to mix the dry ingredients with my hands. That way I can really tell if everything is mixed evenly. Add the wet ingredients and let the mixture stand for ~10-15 minutes so that the dry ingredients are absorbed and the mixture thickens.

Spoon the mixture into a muffin tin that has been sprayed with non-stick baking spray. Fill each muffin cup until it's 3/4 full.


Bake at 400 for 15 minutes until golden brown.


Enjoy for breakfast, as a snack, or even as dessert! These muffins are filling and delicious! That little bit of sweetness from the brown sugar and honey makes these little guys a hit with everyone!

  2. Please do, Rosa! We love to heat them up just a little and put a little Promise butter on them. Let me know how they turn out! :)
