Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar substitute (I use Splenda)
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup quaker 100% oat bran hot cereal
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup ground flax seed
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups all-bran cereal
  • 1 (20 ounce) can drained crushed pineapple in juice
  • 1 (8 ounce) bag chopped walnuts

Method

  • Pour boiling water over Quaker bran hot cereal and let sit 5 minutes.
  • Add molasses, splenda, butter, eggs, buttermilk, and pineapple. Mix together. I don't use a mixer, I just mix together in a big bowl.
  • Add flour, flax, soda, salt, All Bran, and nuts and mix together.
  • Spoon into greased muffin tins (almost full, as these don't rise much).
  • Bake at 400 degrees about 15 minutes. Done when top springs back.
