Ingredients
¾cupbran flakes cereal
½cuplow-fat buttermilk
1largeegg
1tablespooncanola oil
1teaspoonvanilla extract
½cupall-purpose flour
2tablespoonsbrown sugar
½teaspoonground cinnamon
½teaspoonbaking powder
¼teaspoonbaking soda
½cupfresh blueberries
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400F degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, silicone liner or spray with non-stick spray.
Add the cereal to a medium bowl and gently crush using your fingertips. Add the buttermilk, egg white, oil and vanilla and stir to mix well.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, cinammon, baking powder and baking soda.
Give the wet mixture another stir before pouring into the dry flour mixture. Mix just until the dry ingredients are absorbed.
Gently fold in the blueberries.
Divide the batter into 8 mounds spaced evenly on the baking sheet (I used a little more than 2 tablespoons of batter per mound).
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the muffin tops spring back when gently touched.
Allow to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
Recipe Notes
I think these would also be delicious made with fresh raspberries instead of the blueberries.Serving size: 1 muffin topClick here to see your WW PersonalPoints for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site.2*SmartPoints (Green plan)2*SmartPoints (Blue plan)2*SmartPoints (Purple plan)2*PointsPlus (Old plan)
