thanks i am going to try the muffins out on my girls, I'm always looking for something new in way of treats for the.Well, mine sure enjoy multi-grain muffins. Of course these are homemade just for them to eat. No sugar added!
Here is the recipe:
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup oatmeal
1/4 cup flax-seed
1 cup oat bran
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
2 large eggs
1 3/4 cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup chopped dried fruit medley
Whisk flours, oat bran, flax-seed, oatmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
Lightly beat the eggs in a medium bowl. Stir in the buttermilk, oil. Stir the liquid mixture into the flour mixture until moist Dough will be thick Fold in the dried fruit. Divide the batter evenly in muffin cups. . Bake in preheated 375 degree oven until firm when pressed gently, about 25 minutes.
I only tried this because we had older flour, etc that needed to be used up. No use in just tossing it out.
When it called for 1 cup of oat bran, I might also try to sub it using 1 cup of their kibbles instead!
Now, mind you, This recipe is just used as a TREAT for the chickens. I'd never use it as a sole source for their daily diet!
