Notes

Helpful tips
  • I've had to buy oat bran from Amazon because I can't find it easily in local stores. If you can't find it, wheat bran will also work. But I say try it with oat bran first.
  • Be careful not to over mix the batter or the muffins won't rise as well.
  • These muffins freeze well when stored in an airtight container. We use a gallon ziplock bag. We usually freeze half of the muffins after they are completely cooled or at least have come to room temperature.
  • These muffins can stay in the freezer for up to 6 months.
  • After they've baked, if your cake tester comes out clean, the muffins are done but know that they may sink somewhat.
  • If you want this recipe to be vegan, you can substitute 1/4 cup applesauce for the egg.
  • I use spelt flour because I enjoy it but if you prefer, you can substitute it with all-purpose flour (white) or whole wheat flour.
