These are great low fat, healthy muffins that use Amish Friendship Bread Starter (yes, the gift that keeps on giving. . .I swear this stuff multiplies). Feel free to add nuts, raisins, cranberries, cinnamon, vanilla, etc. I make my starter with whole wheat flour, so I go ahead and use cake flour in this recipe to lighten it up a bit. I also use carrot baby food in place of the applesauce to healthify it a bit more :)
Ingredients:
3/4 cup amish starter
1 egg
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup applesauce (may sub pureed carrots or bananas)
1/2 cup natural bran
1/2 cup oats
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup splenda artificial sweetener
1 1/2 cups cake flour (may sub whole wheat flour but the muffins will be more tense)
1 teaspoon baking soda
Directions:
1. Beat together wet ingredients til just mixed.
2. Add remaining ingredients and stir until just mixed (batter should be a little lumpy).
3. Fill greased muffin tins 2/3 full and bake 30 minutes at 375 degrees.
