EASY CHERRY OAT BRAN MUFFINS RECIPE

From http://www.copywriterskitchen.com/2010/06/18/easy-cherry-oat-bran-muffins-recipe/

1 cup oat bran (I use oat flour because oat flour is amazing)
½ cup white and ½ cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1/4 -1/3 cup milk
1/4 cup safflower or other mild oil (extra if greasing muffin tins; I used the papers)
generous c of halved fresh cherries (recipe called for 1/4 cup dried Bing cherries, chopped)
1 c chopped pecans or other nuts (I added this)  

1. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Grease muffin tins.
3. In large Pyrex measuring cup or medium bowl, mix dry ingredients.
4. In large Pyrex measuring cup, beat egg. Add milk and oil. Stir to blend.
5. Pour wet ingredients into dry, add cherries and mix swiftly with a few strokes. DO NOT OVER BLEND even if you see a little flour or bran unincorporated in the batter.
6. Spoon batter into muffin tins, filling 3/4 full—these whole-grain muffins do not rise very high.
7. Bake for 12-14 minutes.
8. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Run knife around tin to loosen muffin.

Makes 12 muffins.
