This is one of the healthy muffins which are baked using oats bran. There are two types of bran, one is a oat bran and another one is wheat bran. They come from the outer husk of the oat and bran. If you find them in your supermarket, just make sure you stock them. they will be available in the cereal section of your supermarket.
You can make muffins out of them, add them to paratha dough, add them to your oatmeal or cereal as well..You can even add them to your milkshakes or smoothies..Such a healthy one..These muffins are perfect for breakfast, this with a cup of milk is just filling. This muffins has only 1 tblspn of oil and it has no flour in it. It is made only with oat bran and it has bananas in them which makes it moist. so you can enjoy many with out any guilt..
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..

Hi.can I bake it as whole cake instead of cupcakes n later make slices of it.thanks
Which banana wud b apt fr the recipe, we get different varieties…
Can we use powederd oatmeal instead of oat bran?
Wow Aarthi these looks yum ! And moreover made with Oats bran just make it a guilt free indulgence 🙂
I have a doubt can we use Silicon muffin molds & trays to bake? And where can i get the muffin cover cases
Looks really moist ..can we make oat bran at home or we get it ready made?
This is a great muffin. If I dont have oat bran can I powder the regular cooking oats and use instead? Will the resulting muffins be as delicious as this?
i want to make these for my father. i feel he is gluten intolerant but he wont' stop eating gluten laden treats. thank you so much, i would be so happy if you could post something like gluten free chapatis, i don't know how to make them.
Can we use powdered oats instead of oats bran?
Delicious and healthy looking muffins. Excellent preparation.

@Anonymousi dont think you can use powdered oats, since this has no flour content in them
@ranjiOat bran is available in super markets. u cannot make it at home
@AnonymousYou can get muffin cases online. And silicon muffin mould can be used, but it result in soggy muffins. Aluminium or nonstick is best
@Shwetai dont think you can use powdered oats, since this has no flour content in them
@AnonymousYou can use any bananas you liked
@AnonymousNot sure about the whole cake idea..it may take longer to bake or may not bake evenly
My oven only has a max of 200 degree C ..This recipe calls for 220 degree c preheat.Pl suggest Aarthi
@Anonymousbake it at 200 degree C. increase cooking time if the muffins were not baked in the mentioned time
Hi Aarthi, I made this recipe. It was delicious but i made it as a cake so it was quiet flat but still completely cooked and so delicious. I used less honey and sugar but still came out perfectly sweet, must be due to the over-ripe bananas. I just had a query, do you think the oat bran is gluten free? i bought baggry's oat bran, what kind have you used?
@Coral cruei think that oats bran is gluten free. But some kind may have gluten
The bragry's oat bran is more like grainy small pearls. My muffins felt like crunchy pakoras because of the texture. Didyou powder the oat bran?
@Ekta Vermano once u add it to the wet mix it will get soft
Just took these out of the oven. My son had one and said "you can make these again" and grabbed his second one. Guess I'll need to double the recipe next time. Thanks for sharing this great recipe.
Why my mixture turned out very sticky. Is it because i replaced oil with yogurt
