Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup safflower (or other vegetable oil)
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1/2 cup wheat bran or wheat germ
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Separately beat together the eggs, maple syrup, sugar, oil, and milk. Stir the egg mixture into the flour mixture. Stir in the berries and bran. Fill the muffin cups three-quarters full.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan before removing.
