Duncan Hines All-Bran Muffin Mix
Pick up a box of Duncan Hines All-Bran Muffin Mix and you will end up with anything but your average muffin. It's made with Kellogg's All-Bran -- one of the highest-octane cereals you can buy.
If you use the box to make 12 muffins, each Apple Cinnamon or Blueberry muffin will give you just 140 calories, five grams of fat (only one of them saturated), and four or five grams of fiber (a fifth of your total for the day). You can add to that the vitamins and phytochemicals brought by the bran.
The fruit -- apple or blueberries -- is cooked in corn syrup and sealed in a small pouch. That means that at least some of the muffins' sweetness comes from real fruit.
The bran gives the muffins a satisfying texture that's missing from the soft, crumbly, white-flour variety.
Pair a muffin with a glass of orange juice or low-fat milk for a quick and healthy breakfast or snack.
