After trying a lot of disappointing bran muffins, I came up with this one. The spices give a little more punch, while the raisins and nuts add iron and additional fiber. It's a great way to use up ripe bananas. Ingredients:
3 medium bananas |
1 cup all-bran cereal |
2/3 cup 2% low-fat milk |
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed |
1/4 cup canola oil |
1 large egg |
1/3 cup pecans, chopped |
1/3 cup raisins |
1 1/2 cups unbleached flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Put bananas in large bowl and blend with an electric mixer until well mashed. Add bran cereal and milk, and let stand for 5 minutes.
2. Add brown sugar, oil, and egg to mixer bowl and blend well. Add pecans and raisins, and blend inches.
3. In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and spices. Stir into the bran mixture until just combined.
4. Spoon batter into greased muffin tins until 2/3 full. Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes.
