Three-Grain Muffins

Three-Grain Muffins with Wheat Bran, Oatmeal and Corn Flour

This muffin recipe has wheat bran, which is the tough outer cover of the wheat kernel and has little nutritional value. However, it is loaded with fibre, which is a good thing!

The muffins remind me of a cross between a biscuit and a muffin. They have wheat bran, oats and cornmeal and are low in sugar and fat. They’re a great snack at any time of the day.
