1 egg
1/4 cup mild extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup molasses (not blackstrap)
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup yogurt
1 cup oat bran
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons Ceylon cinnamon (or 1 tsp. Cassia or Vietnamese cinnamon)
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1
Grease a 12 cup muffin pan and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2
Combine the eggs, olive oil, molasses, light brown sugar, and milk in a medium bowl and whisk until blended well. Add oat bran and whisk until well combined.
3
Grate the fresh ginger (you're simultaneously giving the oat bran time to soak, creating a fluffy and moist muffin) and add to the liquid ingredients. Whisk to combine.
4
Sift the wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt into a small bowl. Stir to mix well.
5
Add the dry ingredients to the wet and whisk until well combined.
6
With a spatula, transfer batter to a large (4-6 cup) glass measuring cup. Pour into muffin cups, approximately 3/4 full.
7
Bake for 20 minutes or until nicely browned.
8
Remove from oven and set aside for 5 minutes before removing from muffin pan. Allow to cool on a wire rack or eat while warm.
