Oat Bran Muffin

by Jill Harris on Aug 17, 2020
Low Oxalate Oat Bran Muffin

These are really known as “Jeannette’s muffins” as it’s my dear friend, Jeannette, who first shared them with me. The recipe has been modified to lower sugar, oxalate, and sodium to make them Kidney Stone Diet-Approved.

Remember, make these to accommodate your taste. I like cranberries, but you may not, so use any low oxalate fruit you desire. I wanted less sugar, so I opted for the cranberry, but I also love them.

These muffins make for a great breakfast or snack and pair perfectly with a plain, low-fat greek style yogurt (dairy or non). An excellent source of fiber too!

You can see that I added some toasted pecans to my muffins. If you use them sparingly, you can use some too. Account for the added oxalate if you do.

    I can’t wait to try this recipe- thank you so much for sharing it! I’ve been eating your salad all summer- cantaloupe, arugula, goat cheese and prosciutto. Perfect! I don’t feel like I’m missing out on delicious food with your suggestions!

      Hi Vicki,
      Remember portion not perfection. Stone makers can still eat some nuts if they are on the safe oxalate list and they are not overdone! 7 whole pecans have 15 mg/oxalate. So a few crushed toasted pieces have so little and can still be put on top if one desires!

    I was a bit surprised to see the addition of whole wheat flour given its inclusion on the High Oxalate lists. I make a Low Oxalate bread that contains many of the same ingredients but using regular flour. I also add milk to boost the calcium.

      Hi Adrian,
      If you note, WW flour has 29 mg/ox for a WHOLE cup. Spread out between 12 muffins adds very little oxalate. This is a portion game and WW flour is more nutritious than white flour. Portion not perfection and you will see that you can eat so many more healthy foods. These muffins have less than 5 mg each. While most patients are allowed 100 mg/ox per day, you can see that these are indeed a low oxalate choice!
      Thanks for writing,
      Jill

    The instructions don’t include the flax meal or the cranberries or pecans…. would have added if were in the instructions & marked optional.

    I made this the first time with frozen blueberries and it was wonderful. Then I got the idea that it might be good as a savory muffin without fruit, so this time I substituted frozen corn for the berries and it is sooooo good.
    Can’t thank you enough, Jill, for this fabulous, versatile recipe.
