Bran cereal lends heartiness to these lemon-poppy seed muffins. For a sweet-tangy finishing touch, drizzle on the confectioners' sugar glaze.
Ingredients:
2 cups all-bran
1-1/4 cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1-1/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
2/3 cup sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
glaze:
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
3 to 4 teaspoons lemon juice
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine bran and milk; let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in the egg, oil and lemon juice. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; stir into bran mixture just until moistened. Fold in poppy seeds and lemon peel.
2. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 400° for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Combine the glaze ingredients; drizzle over warm muffins. Yield: 1 dozen.
