I love Kellogg's All Bran cereal and I'm always searching for healthy recipes to use it in. Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour |
3/4 cup whole wheat flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1 cup kellogg's all-bran cereal (extra fiber kind) |
1 (8 ounce) can crushed unsweetened pineapple, undrained |
1/2 cup unsweetened orange juice |
1 teaspoon orange peel |
2 egg whites |
1/4 cup vegetable oil |
1 cup mixed dried fruit, chopped |
1/3 cup lowfat margarine, softened |
5 teaspoons artificial sweetener (or 5 packets) |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Stir together flours, baking powder, salt and spices; set aside.
2. In large mixing bowl, combine cereal, pineapple including juice and orange juice. Let stand 3 minutes or until cereal is softened. Add orange peel, egg whites and oil; beat well. Stir in dried fruit.
3. Add flour mixture, stirring only until combined. Portion batter evenly into 12 lightly greased 2 1/2-inch muffin-pan cups. Using measuring-teaspoon, make a 1/2-inch indentation in top of each muffin.
4. Bake in 400° F oven about 23 minutes or until golden brown. Cool about 15 minutes before adding filling.
5. Filling: Beat together margarine, sweetener and vanilla. Fill each muffin top with measuring-teaspoon of filling. Serve warm.
