Everyday Bran Muffins

Fresh, healthy, vegan muffins everyday- no coffee shop required.

Ingredients

• 1½ cups wheat bran
• ½ cup cooked rice
• ¼ cup maple syrup, honey, or agave nectar
• 1¼ cups non-dairy milk
• ¼ cup liquid coconut oil
• 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
• 1 Tablespoon baking powder

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°, and grease only 10 spots in a 12-cup muffin pan, or use 10 muffin papers. Fill remaining two spots with water.
2. Mix bran, rice, sweetener, non-dairy milk and coconut oil in a large bowl. Stir to combine, and let stand for 10 minutes.
3. Sift flour and baking powder together, then add to liquid mixture, stirring gently to combine. The batter should be a bit ‘soupy.’ Pour into 10 muffin cups, and bake for 25 minutes. Tops should be firm and browned. Let cool in the muffin pan for 5 minutes, then move to cooling racks. Eat within two days, or freeze for later. Enjoy!
