Four Grain Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degree F.
• Grease muffin tin (I like to use a silicone muffin pan) or line muffin tin with paper cups.
• Whisk together flours, oat bran, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt.
• Lightly beat the egg and egg whites. Stir in the buttermilk, applesauce, almond and vanilla extracts, brown sugar, and oil.
• Stir the liquids into the dry ingredients, until almost combined (batter will be thick), being careful not to over-mix. Gently stir in the dried fruit and nuts.
• Fill muffin cups about ¾ full. Bake until tester is clean, about 23 minutes.
• After a few minutes, remove muffins from the pan, and cool on a rack. You can serve them room temperature, or re-warm them in a toaster oven.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease two 6-cup muffin tins or fill with liners. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, banana, egg and buttermilk. Fold wet mixture into dry mixture and stir until just combined.
• Fill muffin tins or liners; bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until muffins are puffed and turning golden brown on top. Serve warm if possible.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 18 muffin cups with paper liners.
• In a small bowl, cover the raisins with water, and set aside to plump. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, dry milk powder, wheat bran, and farina cereal until thoroughly combined.
• Drain water from the raisins. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy, then mix in the drained raisins, applesauce, carrot, vegetable oil, and bran cereal. Pour the liquid ingredients into the flour mixture, and briefly mix just to moisten (do not overmix). Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full, and sprinkle each muffin with about 1/2 teaspoon of raw sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the muffins are set and the tops are golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin should come out clean. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Pour 3/4 cup of milk into a container and add 1/2 tablespoons of lemon juice to sour it. Let sit for 5 minutes.
• Pre-heat oven to 400º F.
• Mix flours together. Add salt and baking soda and blend mixture well.
• Cut larger pieces of berries into smaller pieces about the size of the blueberries.
• Add soured milk, honey and oil to the batter.
• Oil muffin tins, or use liners.
• Either mix all the berries into the mix and spoon the batter into the muffin tins. Your batter will be purple.
• Or else spoon a little of the mixture into the muffin tins, and alternate adding a pieces of berries and spoonfuls of batter.
• Bake at 400º F for 25 minutes.
