A very low-fat, high fibre breakfast on the go with the benefit of a ton of antioxidants (including some Omegas!) for good measure. Add a quarter-cup of walnuts for good fats and protein if you like them (and your diet allows). Ingredients:
2 tbsp ground flax seed |
1/3 cup warm water |
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats |
1/2 cup 100% bran cereal (the twigs, not buds) |
3/4 cup v8 v-fusion® pomegranate blueberry juice blend |
1/4 cup maple syrup |
1 tbsp vanilla |
1 tbsp fresh-grated ginger |
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour |
1 tbsp baking powder |
1/2 tsp baking soda |
1 cup (preferably homemade) whole-berry cranberry sauce |
1/4 cup dried cranberries |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F, lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick coating.
2. In a small bowl, combine flaxseed and warm water. Set aside for 10 minutes.
3. In a large bowl, combine oats and bran cereal, the pour juice and syrup overtop and set aside 10 minutes.
4. Add vanilla, ginger and flax mixture to the soaked cereal and blend well. See Photo
5. Gently stir in flour, baking powder and baking soda.
6. Finally, gently fold in the cranberry sauce and dried cranberries.
7. Bake for 18-19 minutes. Cool 10 minutes in the pan before turning out.
