Ingredients
- 1 cup whole pitted dates (about 6 oz)
- 3/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 cup nonfat buttermilk
- 1/2 cup mashed ripe banana
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups wheat bran
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
Instructions
- Combine the dates and the orange juice in a small saucepan and set over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then cover the pan and reduce the heat. Allow to simmer for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line 16 muffin tin cups with liners or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a food processor or blender, combine the date and orange juice mixture with the buttermilk, banana, butter, vegetable oil and vanilla. Process until smooth.
- In a large bowl, combine the bran, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt, stirring with a whisk to mix completely. Add the mixture from the food processor and stir together just until combined. Stir in the eggs just until combined.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared cups, filling evenly. Bake until a tester inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 22-25 minutes. Remove from the pan and allow to cool completely.
