Six Week Bran Muffins Are A Powerhouse of Fibre #KelloggsAllBran

I don’t need to tell you this, I think we all know how important it is to have fibre in our diet. The powerful health benefits of fibre are well documented. In fact, studies show that meeting the recommended daily intake of fibre can promote regularity, contribute to healthy cholesterol levels and even help to maintain a healthy body weight.

What you may not know is one of the hottest food trends this fall is “comfort food moderne” — healthy, upscale comfort food.

Simply by adding a versatile ingredient like Kellogg’s All-Bran Buds cereal to your recipe repertoire, favourite fall recipes get an exciting fibre fix and a nutritious, delicious meal is within reach.

I like to add bran cereal to various foods in many ways. Such as:

• Sprinkled on yogurt
• 1/4 cup mixed into smoothies
• Added to granola
• Sprinkled on oatmeal and other hot or cold cereals
• I like bran flakes mixed in with my salads.
• Sneak some bran into casseroles and other one-pot meals by adding 3/4 cup to the meat as it is cooking.
• My favourite way to add fibre to my diet is by eating one of these Six Week Bran Muffins they are a powerhouse of fibre! Bonus –  The batter is in the fridge. All you need to do is scoop one, two or ten into muffin cups, jump into the shower and by the time you are done, the muffins will be ready. Hmmm…warm muffins, fresh from the oven, who could resist?
