Directions

  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degree F.
  2. 2. In a mixing bowl, combine the wheat bran, protein powder, wheat gluten, salt, baking soda, Splenda, cinnamon, and nuts, and stir until well combined.
  3. 3. In a measuring cup, stir together the buttermilk, egg, oil, and molasses.
  4. 4. Spray 10 cups of a muffin tin well with nonstick cooking spray.
  5. 5. Give the wet ingredients one last stir, and pour them into the dry ingredients. With a spoon, stir just long enough to moisten all the dry ingredients. Do not over-mix. The batter should look rough, and a few lumps are fine.
  6. 6. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups, dividing the mixture evenly (the muffin cups should be about 2/3 full).
  7. 7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, and then turn out of the muffin cups onto a wire rack to cool.
