Preheat over to 170C (fan forced). Line muffin tray with muffin papercups.
Mill Oat Bran Cereal for 30 seconds on Speed 10.
Add Baking Powder, mix for 3 seconds Speet 5. Remove from bowl and set aside.
Add Dates & Walnuts into bowl. Chop for 3-5 seconds, Speed 3. If you want a chunky texture, 3 seconds. Do not over chop.
Add all the ingredients back into bowl. Mix 10 seconds, Speed 5 on Reverse. Mixture will be slightly more liquid than normal cupcake/muffin mix.
Divide muffin mix into lined muffin tray.
Bake for 15 minutes, check by inserting a skewer. If it comes out clean - your muffins are done.
Remove immediately from tray and onto rack to cool. This prevents over cooking of the muffins.
Alternative/Variation:
Step 2 - Add 1 Tbspn of Cocoa Powder
Step 4 - Add 70 g Dark Chocolate with the Dates & Walnuts to chop to have a chocolatey treat. You will have melty chocolate bits when muffins are served warm.
Tip
This recipe is one I've played with and converted from a Robert E Kowalski recipe in The 8-Week Cholesterol Cure Cookbook.
Dried fruits/nuts can be substituted interchangeably - i.e. you can use pecans or apricots. I used Cranberries for the seasonal effect.
Substitutions using Ogran No Egg, Soy Milk to create an Egg-free & Lactose-free Vegan Friendly version. Remember you will need to add a little extra sugar to make it tastier.
Original recipe calls for using only egg white, but using egg substitute also reduces the cholesterol in this recipe.
