Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by greasing each cup generously or lining with paper liners. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a large bowl, combine the bran flakes cereal, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to ensure even distribution of the baking powder. (3 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

In a separate bowl, whisk together the applesauce, sugar, vegetable oil, and beaten egg until well combined. (2 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine. Overmixing can lead to tough muffins. (3 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with batter. (2 minutes)

06

Step
18 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. (15-18 minutes)

07

Step
5 mins

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature. (5 minutes)

For a nuttier flavor, add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter.
Substitute brown sugar for white sugar for a richer, molasses-like flavor.
Add 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dry ingredients for a warm, spiced muffin.
Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. Muffins can also be frozen for longer storage; wrap individually in plastic wrap and store in a freezer bag.
