Applesauce bran muffins
Softer than most bran muffins....
1¼ cups sifted flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup bran
1 egg, beaten
⅓ cup milk
⅔ cup applesauce
¼ cup melted fat
Sift together flour, baking power, salt, and sugar. Mix in bran.
Combine egg, milk, applesauce, and fat. Add to the dry ingredients all at once, stirring only enough to moisten.
Fill greased muffin pans two-thirds full. Bake at 400° F. (hot oven) about 20 minutes.
Makes about 12 medium-size muffins.
Applesauce whole-wheat muffins. Use same recipe, replacing bran with 1 cup whole-wheat flour and using 1 cup applesauce. Do not try to sift this flour.
For a different flavor. Add 1 teaspoon grated orange rind to the milk.
