Fruited Honey Bran Muffins

Ingredientes

• 6 colheres de chá sugar
• 1/2 cup all-bran cereal
• 1 médio egg
• 3/4 chávena white flour
• 1/2 chávena yogurt
• 100 g butter
• 1 média banana, chopped
• 1/4 chávena boiling water
• 1/2 colher de chá baking soda
• 2 colheres de sopa honey
• 3/4 chávena wheat bran

Instruções

1. Soak the All-bran cereal in the boiling water and leave to cool. Pre-heat the oven to 400 °F (200 °C). Grease 9 medium sized muffin pans.
2. Melt the butter and honey together in the micro-wave until the butter has just melted; beat in the egg with a fork, then add the yogurt and beat lightly with a fork, just to combine. Add the banana.
3. Measure the dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl and toss together with a fork.
4. Add the All-bran and liquid mixtures to the dry ingredients and fold gently together until the dry ingredients are just moistened. Do not over mix, and most certainly do not beat.
5. Bake for about 15 minutes or until lightly browned and firm in the middle when pressed.
