Here’s a recipe for chocolate oatbran muffins, which is from the web but I’ve adapted slightly. I’ve only tried it once, so prepare for further adaptions as I (hopefully) hone this one!
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons of oat bran
- 1 1/2 tablespoons of no sugar added cocoa powder (I used Bournville, 100% cocoa)
- 2 eggs
- 6 tablespoons of zero fat yogurt
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- Sweetener to taste (I recommend more than you think is right – about 6 tablespoons)
Method
Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl.
Whisk the eggs and add to the dry ingredients together with the yoghurt. Mix until smooth.
Divide the mixture equally between 8 paper muffin cases. I recommend doubling up the cases if you don’t have a muffin tray as the mixture is heavy and may spill.
Bake in a preheated oven at 170 C for 20-25 minutes.
Serve with sweetened Total 0% fat yoghurt and a sprinkle of cocoa. If your muffin is dry, try drizzling it with a syrup made from 2 tsp instant coffee, 1 tsp sweetener and the tinniest dash of boiling water.
