Ingredients:
- 1½ cups wheat bran
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons miNATURALS Inulin Powder
- 3 tablespoons ground flaxseeds
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners. In a large bowl, combine the wheat bran, whole wheat flour, miNATURALS Inulin Powder, ground flaxseeds, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, maple syrup, oil, applesauce, and vanilla until smooth.

Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
