Recently I borrowed “The 250 Best Muffin Recipes” by Esther Brod from the local library. I don’t know if they are the best muffin recipes unless I try each recipe but the variety is really very good though. Actually it has bonus 250 recipes, so totally 500 muffin recipes in one book, with a lot of healthy recipes too. I was amazed by the collection of recipes using oatmeal, oat bran, wheat bran, whole wheat flour and wheat germ. It should easily reach at least 100-150 recipes. Especially there are a lot of oatmeal and oat bran muffins recipes. Since this month’s Whole Grain Baking theme is Oats, I decided to proceed with the Apple Walnut Oat Bran Muffins. (Please note that Oat bran alone is not whole grain, but for this event I’m accepting recipes with oat bran also). I had some bland pears in the fridge and nobody was willing to eat it so decided to use it instead of apple (more about this in the Taste and My Notes section). I have also used apple cider vinegar instead of the egg whites mentioned in the original recipe.
