Fiber Rich Vegan Bran Muffins

by | Jan 9, 2014 | Breakfast

I’ve been making bran muffins forever. If you like bran muffins, you will like these. These Fiber-Rich Vegan Bran Muffins are healthy, hearty, and delicious. There is just something about bran that I love. I especially like to make big batches of foods especially if it freezes well. And these do freeze well.

Bran Muffins Cooling

Double this recipe and you will have enough batter to keep in the refrigerator for six weeks. Prepare the mixture. Bake as many as needed and store the batter in the refrigerator.

Another thought is to bake all the muffins at the same time, use what you will, and freeze the rest.

  • Next, pour in the egg replacers and soured almond milk and remaining ingredients Stir just until moistened.
  • Spoon into lightly greased muffin tins nearly to the brim, so your tops will be rounded. Otherwise, you will have a flat muffin.
