Orange Prune Muffins
"Although I haven't tried this recipe yet, I think it looks good and healthy. It has very little refined sugar and lots of oats. I found it on the back of a Great Value (Wal-Mart) Prunes box. I plan to make it soon for my prune-loving daughter. Since I haven't made it yet, the prep time is a guess."

Good with some tweaking... I used the zest of 1 small orange and its juice that I mixed with the milk. I added to that mix the wheat bran (did not have oat) and rolled oat. Let stand while I prepare the rest. I always have Prune purée so I used 2/3 of cup and added 1/4 of cup of olive oil. I mixed fruits, oil egg and sugar as cakes are usually done. Finished with the oat mixture and then, flour and baking powder. I added 1/2 cup of raisins and 1/2 cup walnut. DO NOT over mix. Delicious! Perfect for toddlers! -
These were very interesting. I liked them, but mom did not. I only used half the orange zest, but the orange flavor was quite powerful. The next day the flavor kind of softened though, and I thought they were much better.
