I love baking with buttermilk. I know you probably think it is really fattening because the word BUTTER is in the name, but 1 cup of low fat buttermilk has only 98 calories and 2 grams of fat but somehow this wonderful elixer keeps baked goods nice and moist while also adding great flavor.
So, this recipe is for using all blueberries, however, as usual I did a little test. I made 6 with just blueberries and I made the other 6 using one chopped banana and a half a cup of chopped walnuts. Here you go....
Ingredients:
Bob's Red Mill - Unprocessed Miller's Wheat Bran, 1 cup (15g)
Milk - Buttermilk, lowfat, 1 cup
Land O' Lakes - Unsalted Butter, 4 Tablespoons
Domino's - Light Brown Sugar, 0.25 cup
Eggs - Whole, raw, 2 extra large
Wholesome Sweeteners - Organic Unsulphered Blackstrap Molasses, 6 tablespoon
Orange Zest -1 tablespoon
Mccormick's - Pure Vanilla Extract, 1 tsp
King Arthur Flour - Unbleached All Purpose Flour, 1.5 cup (30g)
Rumford - Baking Powder, 3/4 tsp
Bob's Red Mill - Aluminum Free Baking Soda, 1/4 tsp
Sea Salt, 0.5 tsp
Blueberries - Raw, 1.5 cup
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350*. Line muffin tin with liners.
Combine the wheat bran with the buttermilk. Stir together and set aside.
Cream together the butter & brown sugar until nice and light.
Add eggs one at a time and whip together. Add molasses, vanilla and orange zest.
Sift together all dry ingredients and then add to wet alternating and mixing until all combined
Stir in the blueberries being careful not to break them.
I use a large dasher and drop a scoop into each liner.
Bake about 18-20 min
Cool completely (if you don't do this, the muffin will stick to the liner when you try to peel it off)
Nutritional Info per serving for 12 muffins:
Calories - 184
Carbs - 29
Protein - 5

Fiber - 3
Enjoy!!!
