Calories 150kcal
Ingredients
- ¾ cup Oat Bran
- 1 cup Milk (I used skimmed)
- ½ cup Bananas mashed (I used two small bananas)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- ½ cup All Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
- ½ teaspoon Cinnamon powder (optional)
- Handful Cranberries A dried , chopped
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon unsalted Butter melted
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 175 degree Celcius.
- In a bowl, mix together oat bran, milk, bananas and vanilla extract and let the mixture sit for 10-15 minutes. This will help soak the oat bran so that the muffins are not dry.
- In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon powder (if using), cranberries and salt. Set aside.
- In a different bowl, whisk together butter, honey and maple syrup.
- Once the bran mixture has soaked for 10 minutes, add the butter mixture. Mix well. Finally add the flour mixture and mix just until combined.
- Scoop mixture into lined muffin tins. These muffins don't rise too much so you can fill till the top. If using mini tins, bake for 12-15 minutes. If using regular sized muffin tins, bake for 18-20 minutes.
- Once baked, let the muffins cool for a few minutes before turning them out on a wire mesh.
- This recipe makes 15 mini muffins or 6 large muffins.
