Cranberry Muffin-Bundt

March 22, 2010 by epicureanvegan

Cranberry Muffin-Bundt -- Epicurean VeganThe original recipe is called Low-Fat Vegan Coffee Cake but it really has more of a muffin-like texture, consistency and taste. “Coffeecake” just doesn’t seem to fit. It’s not to say it’s not delicious because it’s extremely tasty and moist. Plus…prep time was about 10 minutes and only required one medium sauce pan! How easy is that?! This would be great for dessert, brunch (Easter is coming up…) or just good ‘ol teatime.

INGREDIENTS:
1/4 cup vegan margarine
2 cups applesauce
1 cup flour
1-1/2 cups wheat bran flakes or oat bran (I used the flakes and broke them up just a little bit)
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cloves
1 cup raisins (I used dried cranberries)
1 cup chopped nuts (optional-but I used walnuts)

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9″ square baking pan. I obviously used a bundt pan–I think it makes a much prettier presentation. In a medium-large saucepan, combine the margarine and applesauce over medium heat and heat until margarine is melted. Remove from heat.

Cranberry Muffin-Bundt -- Epicurean VeganAdd the remaining ingredients, combine well and pour into prepared baking pan. I had to shake the pan to even out the batter. It should resemble oatmeal.

Cranberry Muffin-Bundt -- Epicurean VeganBake for 25-30 minutes, however, I ended up baking mine for 45 mins before an inserted knife came out clean. All ovens run differently, so just keep an eye on it. Leave in the pan and place on a rack to cool before removing from the pan.

Enjoy!

tasty, easy and moist!, March 15, 2009

“I thought this cake was very simple to prepare and my family loved it, including our picky toddler!I reduced the sugar by half, only using 1/2 cup and found it was still very sweet. I also subbed oatmeal and oat flour for the recommended oats or wheat germ or whatever it called for, I don’t recall. I did add raisins and walnuts.I baked it as suggested but found in my 8 inch round glass dish I needed to cook it about 20 minutes longer than suggested!”

The Epicurean Vegan is devoted to those wanting to eat healthy, save animals, and reduce their carbon footprint. My decision to go vegan started out as a quest to get healthier, but the more I learned about veganism, the more I realized how damaging the meat and dairy industries are to the environment and, of course, the animals. And it is for these reasons, that I would never go back to eating or wearing animal products. Ever.
