    Blueberry Oat Bran Muffins

    11
    By Alisa Fleming on September 7, 2016 Bread, Breakfast, Dairy-Free Recipes

    I am a huge fan of bran muffins, but these oat bran muffins are different from the typical wheat-based variety. The recipe is gluten-free and made purely with oat bran. No flours or starches of any kind are required! The blueberries are a definite flavor bonus, but you can swap in your favorite fresh or frozen fruit. Or you can go with a fruit infusion by using the option for banana oat bran muffins included in the recipe notes.

    Special Diet Notes Blueberry Oat Bran Muffins

    By ingredients, this recipe is dairy-free / non-dairy, gluten-free, nut-free, peanut-free, soy-free, and vegetarian.

    For egg-free and vegan blueberry oat bran muffins, you can swap in your favorite egg white substitute for the eggs. We like 1/4 cup aquafaba (for both egg whites), whipped before adding. However, you should keep in mind that the muffins will be more fragile since they’re also made without gluten.

    Serves: 12 muffins
    Ingredients
    • 2 cups uncooked oat bran (use certified gluten free, if needed)
    • 2 tablespoons brown sugar or coconut sugar
    • 2 teaspoon baking powder
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • 1 cup unsweetened dairy-free milk beverage (your choice of type)
    • 2 egg whites, slightly beaten
    • ¼ cup honey or molasses
    • 2 tablespoons non-GMO canola oil (or your baking oil of choice)
    • ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
    Instructions
    1. Preheat your oven to 425ºF.
    2. Grease 12 muffin cups or line them with paper baking cups.
    3. In a mixing bowl, stir together the oat bran, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
    4. Add the milk beverage, egg whites, honey or molasses, oil, and blueberries. Mix with a spoon just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Do not over-mix.
    5. Fill the prepared muffin cups about three-quarters full.
    6. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until golden brown.
    7. Let cool for 10 minutes in the muffin cups, before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
    Notes

      Wonderful! I weighed oat bran flour to equal the weight of oat bran; oat milk; one, extra large whole egg; and frozen berries. I didn’t measure the berries. Instead, I added them to each muffin, then baked for 20 minutes.

        Yes, but keep in mind that cut fruit can add more moisture to the muffins.

      These were awesome, however I changed a few things. I didn’t use any coconut sugar..Instead I replaced it with a 6 drops of stevia but I did use the honey. I added 1/2 tsp of ginger powder, 1 tsp of cinnamon and a tsp of vanilla. I also used one whole large egg. I used a 1/2 cup of soaked wild dried blueberries instead of fresh. My oil was EVOO and I found it left no olive oil flavor at all. I don’t like using canola oil so I don’t have it in my pantry. I baked 9 muffins and lowered my
      oven temperature to 375. First time I made this, they baked too quickly on the outside, so I
      achieved much better results with a lower temperature. Probably baked these 20 minutes and
      they came out perfect. I’ve made this recipe 3 times and kept perfecting it. Now I think it’s
      exactly the way I like it. Oh, also I’ve been using almond milk for the liquid. Love these. I always
      keep an extra batch in my freezer now. Thanks for this recipe! I’ve been having issues trying to
      locate a perfect oat bran muffin recipe that uses zero flour. This is it!

        Hi Maddy, thank you so much for sharing your lower sugar version. And I love that you added ginger, cinnamon, and vanilla – three of my favorites! If baking with EVOO, you might want to reduce the oven temperature a little more. The smoke point for that oil is typically 350ºF, so it starts to break down at higher temperatures. I would personally cap it at 350ºF and increase the time a little more! Or you can bake with extra-light olive oil. I use that often in baking because it has a higher smoke point. I really appreciate all of your wonderful feedback – it will help many people!
