The ingredients for Apple Maple Bran Muffins are:

6 oz Maple Yogurt (I used whole milk yogurt)
3 cup Oat Bran
1 cup Applesauce, unsweetened
2 tbsp Coconut Oil Organic (warmed to it's liquid state)
.5 cup Milk, nonfat (skim milk)
1 large Egg, fresh, whole, raw
2 Tblsp vanilla extract (or good brandy/bourbon)
3/4 cup PURE Maple Syrup
1.25 cup All purpose flour (or gluten free)
4 tbsp Cinnamon, ground
1 tsp Chinese Five-Spice Powder - (if you don't have this on hand use ground ginger)
2 tsp Allspice
2 tsp Nutmeg, ground
1 tsp Salt
4 tsp Baking Powder
2 medium Granny smith apples peeled, cored and chopped into cubes

Here is how you make Apple Maple Bran Muffins:

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line 2 12-cup muffin tins and 1 6-cup muffin tin with muffin liners. I'd use muffin liners because the apple and muffin mixture is sticky and doesn't come out easy with just using a cooking spray. Mix in a large bowl: oat bran, yogurt and milk. Let the oat bran soak up the moisture for about 10 minutes. Stir in the rest of the wet ingredients (coconut oil, apple sauce, egg, maple syrup, vanilla extract). Mix until it is combined. Add the dry ingredients (flour, cinnamon, chinese five spice, allspice, nutmeg, salt and baking powder. Mix to incorporate. Fold in diced apples. Put in lined muffin pans (I use a 3/4 cup cookie scoop to make sure I get all the muffins the same size). Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes away clean.
