Of course, diabetics can adjust this recipe by replacing the little bit of brown sugar with a sugar substitute or something like Splenda Brown Sugar blend.

Apple Oat Bran Muffins

1 1/2 cups oat bran
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
3 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup apple juice
1/4 cup skim milk
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons oil
2 tablespoons honey
1 cup apples, peeled and diced
2 tablespoon raisins

Preheat oven to 400ºF.

Combine the oat bran, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Mix together well and set aside. Combine the juice, milk, egg, oil and honey. Add the flour mixture, apples and raisins and stir until just moistened.

Spray the muffin tins with a non-stick spray coating. Fill the tins 2/3 of the way up and bake for 20 minutes or until they are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Makes 12 muffins.

Tips and Variations:

Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts for extra crunch and even better nutritional value.
Do not overmix the muffin batter! When you add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mix them together only enough to make sure everything is moistened. Overmixing produces a less tender muffin.
