Hi Lakshmi,
This particular recipe is meant to have the oat bran because it provides a whole days of recommended fiber in one shot. We have not tried this recipe with regular oats (instant or rolled) but the proportions of the other ingredients may change.

Hi,
You can make these cookies, I have tried & tested this recipe. It tastes great!
(Recipe originally developed by Martha Stewart)
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup Dutch process cocoa powder
1 tablespoon finely ground espresso beans
1/2 lb unsalted butter,at room temperature
3/4 cup confectioners sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat oven to 350*F with two racks spaced evenly apart. Line two
baking sheets with parchment paper. Sift together the flour, cocoa and
ground espresso; set aside.
In a bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle
attachment,combine the butter, confectioners sugar and vanilla; beat on
medium speed until creamy, 3-4 minutes. Reduce speed to low, and
gradually beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture, scraping down
the sides of the bowl twice.
Roll a heaping tablespoon of dough between the palms of your hands
to form a ball. Place on prepared baking sheet; repeat with remaining
dough, spacing cookies 2 inches apart. Place the tines of a fork into
dough and gently flatten the ball into biscuit shape. Bake biscuits
until just firm to the touch, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating half way
through. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
These are great to serve along with coffee or espresso when you’re entertaining.
Hope that helps !

We are sure egg replacer will work or you can use the flaxseed powder substitute we mention in the video. You cannot just leave it out.

Namaste Hetal and Anuja,
With the opening of a brand new WinCo Foods in my area bulk oat brand is no problem and whole flax seed is always in stock. Flax seed powder is another story. If I ground whole flax seed into powder form how much of the whole seed would I need to make 2 tablespoons of powdered? I theorize it would be more than 2 tablespoons since the powder is more compact A fan, Rich

Hi Rich,
Different things grind differently. For example, if we grind 1 tsp of cardamom seeds, we usually get more than 1 tsp powdered (go figure!). We have never ground the flax seed ourselves as we get the powdered version so we don’t have an exact measurement for you. Sorry.

Thank you Hetal. Just thought I’d ask. My VitaMix has a special attachement and jar for grinding whole grains. MaybeI should simply measure out a cup of flax seed and see what I get. Fineness of the grind may have something to do with the results as you suggested.
Your fan, Rich

A perfect nutritive recipe providing fibres. Though we little modified: 1. We never take eggs. We never mix milk and yogurt together. So why we omitted eggs and milk. Even there after it became tasty. Thanks a lot to both the madams.

Hi Guys,
Can I replace the banana with any other fruits – berries? Should be ok right?
Thanks!

hetal Reply:
January 11th, 2012 at 7:43 pm
Hi Neha,
You may have to adjust the sugar. Bananas have natural sweetness whereas berries tend to be on the tart side. Having said that, we have not really tried this recipe with berries so if you decide to try it, please experiment on a small batch.

Hello ladies,
Finally had a chance to make these muffins this morning and WOW. They are so good. Did a bit of changing as I only had small amounts of some items; one banana, so I added two grated Gala apples – mixed walnuts and pecans chopped up – only a smidge of raisins and added chopped dates. I’m not so sure I want to take these to work and share.
Your fan, Rich

Hi, If I just take out the oil, is it ok? You mentioned the oat bran is heavy so it won’t rise so much, then will the muffins not fluffy as other muffins after baked? Please advise. Thanks.
[Reply]
hetal Reply:
February 13th, 2012 at 7:06 pm
Hi Stephanie,
We have not tried it without the oil but would think that it would need some fat for the texture to be palatable. These muffins have a different texture than flour muffins that are cake-like fluffy. That is not to say that the texture is bad…just different.

Hi Yogi,
You should be able to. Normally, yogurt acts as the acid to activate the baking soda but in this recipe, the molasses in the brown sugar will do the same.
