Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups wheat bran
1 cup skim milk
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 egg whites
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips or 1/2 cup dried cranberries or 1/2 cup any type nuts or 1/2 cup raisins

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
Mix together skim milk and lemon juice and then combine with wheat bran and; let stand for 10 minutes.
Beat together applesauce, egg whites, sugar and vanilla and add to milk/bran mixture.
Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon.
Stir flour mixture into milk mixture, until just blended. It's okay if its still a bit lumpy, as this will help it be light and airy.
Fold in whatever dried fruit/chocolate chips/nuts you'd like, or just leave them plain! NOTE: depending on the sweetness of what you add (ie chocolate chips or sweetened dried fruit) you may want to adjust the amount of sugar you put in the batter.
Spoon batter into prepared muffin tins.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool and enjoy!
