1 1/4 c. whole wheat flour
1/3 c. packed brown sugar
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1 c. buttermilk
2 tbsp. cooking oil
Nonstick spray coating
1 c. oat bran
2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
2 egg whites
3/4 c. shredded, peeled apple

In a medium bowl stir together flour, oat bran, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon; set aside.

In a small bowl combine buttermilk, egg whites, and oil. Add to dry ingredients; stir just until moistened. Stir in shredded apple. Store batter, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

To bake, spray muffin cups with nonstick spray coating. Spoon about 1/4 cup batter into each muffin cup. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Makes 12 muffins.
