Our healthier-version of this classic muffin is a reminder that home baked really is best. Swap in chopped walnuts for the raisins, if you like.*

Ingredients

Whole wheat flour

1 cup(s)

Uncooked wheat bran

⅔ cup(s)

Sea salt

¼ tsp(s)

Baking soda

1 tsp(s)

Ground cinnamon

1 tsp(s)

Butter

¼ cup(s), softened

Raw egg

1 large

1% low-fat buttermilk

1 cup(s)

Raisins

1 cup(s), chopped

Unpacked brown sugar

⅔ cup(s)

Olive oil cooking spray

2 spray(s)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a 12-hole muffin tin with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, wheat bran, salt, baking soda and cinnamon; set aside.
  3. Using an electric mixer, in a large bowl, cream butter with sugar until sugar is dissolved; add egg and beat thoroughly. Add 1/3 of bran mixture and 1/3 cup of buttermilk; mix until just combined. Repeat, alternating, with remaining bran mixture and buttermilk; fold in raisins.
  4. Fill each prepared muffin hole about 2/3’s full with batter; place in middle of oven. Bake until a toothpick inserted in centre of a muffin comes out clean, about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm or cooled. Yields 1 muffin per serving.

Notes

*Could affect Point Values. To prevent raisins from sticking to the knife when you chop them, coat the blade with cooking spray first.
