Total Calories: 335

Ingredients

DRY INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup unbleached flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup oat or wheat bran
WET INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup milk
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
GOODIES
3/4 cup firm fresh blueberries washed and patted dry
1 (16-ounce) can peaches packed in fruit juice, well draied
GLAZE
1 tablespoon light margarine
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup peach schnapps

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.

2. Sift together all the dry ingredients, except the bran, in a large bowl. Then add the bran and stir to combine. Add the blueberries and toss to coat.

3. Purée the peaches in a food processor or blender to yield about 1 1/4 cups purée. Add the wet ingredients and pulse to blend. (You can also use a fork or a potato ricer to mash the peaches, then blend in the wet ingredients by hand.)

4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Stir just until mixed. Do not overstir. Spoon the batter into a greased or papered muffin tin. Fill each cup nearly to the top.

5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes.

6. While the muffins bake, prepare the glaze. Melt the margarine in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar and cook, stirring constantly for 5 minutes, or until it begins to brown. Remove from the heat and stir in the schnapps.

7. After removing the muffins from the oven, immediately pierce the top of each six or seven times with a skewer or toothpick. Using all the glaze, drizzle it evenly over each muffin until completely absorbed.

8. Cool the muffins at least 10 minutes before removing from the tin.
