  • 4 cups oat bran
  • 1/2 cup flour, any type
  • 1/2 ground or whole flaxseed
  • 4 tsp baking powder

Method

Mix dry ingredients, except raisins. Mix wet ingredients. Combine both mixtures and raisins, stirring just until combined. Put in 24 greased regular-size muffin tins and bake at 425 degrees about 20 minutes or until done. Muffins should be slightly browned and a toothpick inserted should come out clean.

 

Notes: Muffins freeze well. Microwave for 20-30 seconds to thaw for a quick treat. Three muffins a day provides the recommended amount of oat bran to help lower cholesterol.
