Ingredients
- 1 cup flax seeds
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 cup bran
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 1/2 cups dried cranberries
Preparation
Step 1
1. Set aside 2 tbsp flaxseeds. In food processor, finely grind remaining flaxseeds; transfer to large bowl. Add all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, natural bran, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; whisk to combine.
2. In separate bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, sugar and oil; pour over dry ingredients. Sprinkle with cranberries; stir just until combined.
3. Spoon into 12 greased or paper-lined muffin cups; sprinkle with reserved flaxseeds. Bake in centre of 375ºF oven until tops are firm to the touch, 20 mins. Let cool in pan on rack 5 minutes; transfer to rack and let cool completely.
Notes: Yum! Very hearty and filling - easy to tell it was a bran muffin, but didn't taste too healthy. Lots of great stuff in it. Used golden raisins instead of cranberries.
