Ive stumbled along this recipe for Oatbran Banana muffins. ive been craving a good tolerable muffin for a few weeks. I can eat oatbran in the mornings as a hot cereal fine.
does this sound tolerable or something I should substitute? If anyone has other muffins recipe they would like to share or point me to, feel free 
OatBran Banana Muffins
serves 12
2 1/4 cups oatbran
1 tbsp baking powder
2 large over-ripe bananas, chopped
1 1/4 cups lowfat soymilk
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 egg whites
1 cup fresh blueberries or raspberries
Preheat oven to 450 degrees and fill muffin tin with paper liners.
Combine oatbran and baking powder in a large bowl.
Place chopped bananas, milk, maple syrup and egg whites in a blender. Blend until smooth and frothy.
Pour blender contents into oatbran and mix until dry ingredients are moist.
Stir in berries, and fill muffin cases evenly with mixture.
Bake at 450 degrees for 22-25 minutes, until the tops are brown.

As long as you can tolerate the oat bran, I think it seems fine. If you're looking for more muffins recipes, go to the recipe index (link's at the top of the page) or do a search. There are quite a few really good ones.

Yikes... that's all oat bran and no flour! That's a heck of a lot of IF without any SF as a buffer. Personally, I wouldn't risk that one. If it had some flour and some oat bran I might feel differently.

to my understanding Oatbran is soluble fiber? and so are bananas. the blueberries being insoluble?
or am I mislead?

The bran is the part of the grain that contains most of the IF, unless I'm mistaken. So it's my understanding that any kind of bran (be it wheat, oat, or corn) is going to be very high in IF. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

50% SF and 50% IF. At least that's what my box says. It says it contains a total of 6 grams of fiber per serving, then breaks it down as 3 grams SF and 3 grams IF.

50% of both IF & SF is correct. Oat Bran is something that I am able to tolerate well. If you are able to eat the oat bran cereal, I would give it a try! By the way, I love oat bran muffins and I eat the oat bran cold cereal with soy milk daily .
