Time 15m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups natural bran
1 egg, beaten
1 cup molasses
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup shortening, melted

Steps:

  • Add the beaten liquid ingredients to the sifted combined dry ones in a few swift strokes, just until the flour is moistened. The mixing is held to absolute minimum, a light stirring from 10-20 seconds, batter will be lumpy. The batter should not be mixed to the point of pouring, ribbon-like from the spoon, but should break into course globs. If the batter has been beaten too long, the gluten in the flour will develop and toughen the dough.
  • To bake, preheat oven to 400°F Grease bottoms only of medium-size muffin cups, fill 2/3 full. Bake at once in a preheated 400F oven until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. If muffins remain in tins a few moments after leaving the oven they will be easier to remove.
