Fat-Free Bran Muffins

Fat-Free Bran Muffins

2 1/2 C. Kellogg’s Bran Buds cereal
3/4 cup hot water
1/2 cup fruit puree (e.g. “Just like Shortenin'” or Sunsweet Lighter Bake)
1/4 cup molasses
2 C. buttermilk
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. allspice
2 1/2 C. flour

Preheat oven to 375 degrees or 350 degrees if using non-stick pans. Grease muffin tins. In a food processor, add cereal and process until crushed to fine crumbs. Add hot water. Process until briefly. Add all remaining ingredients and mix just until batter is blended. At this point, the batter can be refrigerated for up to six weeks, so you can make a batch ahead and just bake them fresh when you need them. When ready to bake, fill greased muffin tins 3/4 full. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly brown. Do not over bake. You can also add chopped fruit or nuts to the batter for variety.
