  • About

We particularly like the way the flavors of maple and fig combine with the oat bran in these muffins. Dried figs and oat bran are both excellent sources of fiber.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups oat bran
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F. Use -inch nonstick muffin pans and spray with nonstick cooking spray, or use paper muffin cup liners.
  2. Stir together the oat bran, baking powder, orange zest, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl until blended. Add the figs and toss to coat.
