Raisin Bran Muffins image

Delicious Raisin Bran Muffins are easy to make breakfast muffins made with the classic raisin bran cereal we all know and love! The tasty cinnamon muffin surrounds bran flakes and tender bites of raisin and is absolutely perfect with a touch of honey or pat of butter!

Provided by Angela

Categories     Breakfast Recipes     Muffin Recipes

Time 31m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups Raisin Bran
1 cup milk
1 large egg ((beaten, at room temperature) )
1/4 cup unsalted butter ((melted and cooled - or use cooking oil))
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon ((optional))

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and line a muffin tin with paper muffin liners or coat with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients including all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cinnamon.
  • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the cooled, melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
  • Mix the ingredients just enough to incorporate the dry flour into the wet ingredients.
  • Add the raisin bran cereal, stir to combine. Allow the muffin batter to sit for up to 45 minutes if you want the bran flakes to take on the moisture from the batter. *These muffins are the only time I will ever argue that soggy cereal is best!
  • Portion the muffin batter out into your prepared muffin tin, filling each muffin liner between 3/4 and full. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 16-18 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
  • Remove the baked muffins and allow to cool in the muffin pan for 10 minutes. Serve warm for best results.

Tips:

- To achieve a golden brown crust on your raisin bran bars, ensure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before baking. This will help the bars cook evenly and prevent them from becoming too dry. - Use a good quality baking dish that is the right size for the recipe. A 9x13 inch pan is typically the best choice, as it will provide enough space for the bars to spread out and cook evenly. - If you want to add additional flavor to your raisin bran bars, you can try adding ingredients like chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even a drizzle of honey or maple syrup before baking. - Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough bars. Mix just until the ingredients are combined, then pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. - Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting them into squares or bars. This will help them hold their shape and prevent them from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Baked raisin bran bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their chewy texture, sweet flavor, and crunchy topping, these bars are sure to be a hit at any gathering. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy snack or a special treat to serve at a party, baked raisin bran bars are a great choice.
