Suzanne's Apple-Oat Bran Muffins


This recipe only makes 6 muffins but I am sure could be doubled.  There are only 2 of us so it is a good fit.
 
Apple-Oat Bran Muffins
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons whole spelt flour (the recipe calls for whole wheat but I don't eat wheat)
1/2 cup oat bran
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
dash of salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 egg white
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon canola oil (I use olive)
2/3 cup grated apple
 
In small bowl, combine the first eight ingredients.  In another bowl, whisk the egg white, buttermilk and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.  Fold in apple.
Coat muffin cups with cooking spray; fill 3/4 full with batter.  Bake at 375 degrees for 16 - 18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.  Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.  Serve warm.  I also freeze them and eat them out of the freezer. Yield 6 servings.
