Jessica's Favorite Muffins

Category: Low Fat

 Ingredients List

  • 2 1/4 c Oat-bran
  • 1 tb Baking powder
  • 1/4 c Honey
  • 1 c Blueberries
  • 2 Bananas
  • 1 1/4 c Skim milk
  • 2 Egg whites
  • 2 tb Corn syrup

 Directions

Preheat oven to 425 F. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl. The
blueberries too, it keeps them from staining the ingredients. Mash the
bananas in a separate bowl and mix the milk, egg whites, honey, and corn
syrup together, then blend with the dry ingredients. Line muffin pans with
paper baking cups, and fill with batter. Bake about 15 minutes. Makes 12
muffins.

***HINTS*** I found that if you try to eat these straight from the oven
they tend to stick to the paper. They keep great for a week though in the
frig without sticking. If you eat 3 of these a day, it is suppose to be a
sufficient amount of oatbran to significantly lower your cholesterol. So
far, I haven't seen much of a difference in my own, but that is just me and
I am still trying. Also, if you use a 1/4 cup measure to scoop out the
batter, it pretty much evenly distributes the batter amoung the 12 cups.

***Variations**** I have tried the following substitutions in many
combinations and these are still good. raisens instead of blueberries or
no fruit at all, 1/4 c brown sugar instead of 1/4 c honey, no bananas, one
banana, 2 Tbsp of canola for 2 Tbsp of corn syrup although I wouldn't
recommend this for obvious reasons. Also, you could try 2 cups of oatbran
and 1/2 cup apple fiber. I have not tried this yet, but will the next time
I make muffins. I FINALLY found apple fiber (no, not apple pectin)
yesterday at a hfs thanks to my friend Jen who happens to be on this list!!
Apple fiber is an even better fiber than oatbran, and therefore even better
for lowering LDL and raising HDL!

I hope you enjoy these!
