Oven-Ready Bran Muffins image

Found this recipe on a box and have been making it for years! Great for bran or non-bran lovers...with or without raisins! I love with raisins...warming them up in the morning and spreading with some peanut butter! YUM!

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 c unprocessed wheat bran, divided
1 c boiling water
1 c packed brown sugar
1/2 c butter
2 1/2 c whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 eggs, beaten
2 c buttermilk
1 c raisins, optional
24 paper muffin cups

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Put paper muffin cups into muffin tin.
  • 2. Mix 1 cup bran with 1 cup boiling water; stir and let water asborb into bran.
  • 3. Measure and combine flour, baking soda and salt.
  • 4. In a separate bowl, mix together the sugar and butter. Add the moist bran, beaten eggs, remaining 2 cups of bran, and buttermilk; mix well.
  • 5. Add the flour, soda and salt mixture; stir until well blended. Stir in the raisins, if desired.
  • 6. Spoon into the prepared muffin tins...I use my ice cream scoop! Bake for 15 minutes.
  • 7. Hint...since some of us like raisins and some do not, at first I do not add raisins. I fill 12 muffin cups and then add 1 cup raisins to the remaining dough. Then fill the remainder of the cups.
