Dairy-Free Bran Muffin Recipe

These dairy-free bran muffins have been on repeat the last few weeks partially because they’re just so easy to make, partially because they’re delicious & partially because they’re easy to have as breakfast or a snack for the week. They’re made with bran cereal that gets soaked in almond milk which makes for the absolute best texture in a muffin. They’re (sorry in advance for using the word everyone hates…) super moist & the most perfect flavor!

    How much salt or baking powder would be a pinch? 1/4tsp?
    Could I use coconut oil in place of apple sauce?

      Hi Vera! You can literally take a pinch of each in between your fingers and that will do! Typically it’s around 1/16 tsp if that helps! Unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend oil substituted for applesauce as the applesauce helps to bind and act as a sugar. The oil will likely make them too runny. Hope you enjoy!
