FRUIT AND FIBER OVERLOAD MUFFINS 
1/2 cup liquid egg substitute (I use Egg Beaters)
1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk
1/2 cup molasses (Grandma's)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup grated apples
1/2 cup mashed bananas
3 cups 100% bran cereal
1 1/2 cups whole-wheat flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup blueberries or cranberries

Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray muffin tins with non-stick cooking spray (Pam).

In medium bowl, combine egg substitute, buttermilk, molasses, oil, apple and bananas. Measure bran, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon into a large bowl.

Stir with a fork until mixed; then make a well in the center. Pour in fruit mixture, stirring just until combined. Stir in blueberries or cranberries.

Immediately spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.

Bake at 375°F until golden and tester inserted in center comes out clean (about 30 minutes).

Makes 12 muffins (223 calories per muffin).
