Orange-Apricot Bran Muffins

This recipe just tasted so good and healthy to me. I really liked the fresh orange peel taste.

Orange-Apricot Bran Muffins
1-1/3 cups vanilla yogurt
1-1/4 cups bran
1 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup orange or pineapple juice
1/2 cup honey
1/4 butter, melted
1 egg, beaten
1 T grated orange peel
1 cup dried apricots (or other dried fruit like cranberries)

In a bowl, combine yogurt and bran; let stand for 5 minutes. In a large bowl, combine flours, baking soda and powder, and salt. Stir the orange juice, honey, butter, egg and orange peel into yogurt mixture. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in apricots.

Coat miffin cups with cooking spray or use cupcake holders. Gill three-quarters of the way full. Bake at 375 for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pans to wire racks.
