4. Preheat oven to 325u00b0F and line two 12-cup muffin pans with cupcake liners. Use a large ice cream scoop and scoop a generous amount of batter into the lined muffin pans. Sprinkle the tops with more wheat germ, more bran, and/or sunflower seeds if you wish (I sprinkled mine with chia seeds and wheat germ). Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and all to cool before serving.
