Equipment

  • 1 high powered blender or food processor
  • 1 muffin tin (regular size)

Ingredients

  • 60 g oatmeal quick oats or oatmeal
  • 110 g milk
  • 20 g molasses
  • 70 g prunes
  • 1 egg medium or large
  • Pinch salt optional
  • Pinch cinnamon optional
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 20 g wheat bran if gluten free, use oat bran

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F.

Method 1: uniform texture

  • Add all muffin ingredients to a blender and blend until very smooth.

Method 2: "bran muffin" texture and higher muffin dome

  • Add all muffin ingredients EXCEPT for bran (wheat bran or oat bran) into a blender and blend until very smooth.
  • Pour out the blended batter into a mixing bowl. Combine the blended batter with the bran with a whisk or spatula until evenly mixed.

Divide & Bake

  • Line or grease a muffin tin, then divide the batter evenly into 4 regular sized muffins.
  • Bake at 400 F for 15-18 minutes. Skewer inserted into center should come out clean – some minimal sticking is okay due to the prunes.
  • Once cooled, store in an airtight container.
