Oat Bran Muffins

2 cups Quaker Oat Bran, uncooked

1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar

2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp salt (optional) (I used just a pinch or so)

1 cup skim milk

2 egg whites, slightly beaten

1/4 cup honey or molasses

2 Tbl. vegetable oil

Heat oven to 425 degrees. Line 12 medium muffin cups with paper baking cups or spray bottoms only with no-stick cooking spray. Combine dry ingredients; mix well. Add combined milk, egg whites, honey and oil; mix just until dry ingredients are moistened. *Fill prepared muffin cups 3/4 full. Bake 15 to 17 minutes or until golden brown.

*Variations: Stir into batter 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries or 1/2 cup (1 medium) mashed, ripe banana.
