Delicious mini muffins bursting with apple flavor, made with whole wheat flour, bran, fresh apple, applesauce, and apple cider. Ideal for breakfast or snacking.
Ingredients:
  • 0.75 cup bran cereal (such as General Mills® Fiber One®)
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tart apple, peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1.5 cups cold apple cider
  • 0.5 cup applesauce
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and generously spray two 24-cup mini muffin tins with cooking spray.
  • In a food processor, grind the bran cereal until it resembles flour. Transfer the ground cereal to a large bowl and add the flour, apple, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
  • Combine apple cider, applesauce, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Gently mix in the flour mixture until combined; the batter will be runny. Let it rest for 1 to 2 minutes to thicken and double in size due to the baking soda and apple cider reaction.
  • Carefully spoon the batter into the greased muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until the tops spring back when lightly pressed. Cool before enjoying.
