Provided by Katherine in Alberta

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups rogers wheat bran
1 cup buttermilk (or 1 tbsp. lemon juice added to 1 cup milk)
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup raisins (I use 3/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Mix together Rogers Wheat Bran and buttermilk; let stand.
  • Combine the vegetable oil, egg, sugar and vanilla and add it to the bran-buttermilk mixture, this is now your first mixture.
  • Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

  • Line muffin tins with baking cup papers and spoon into baking cup papers using all the batter.
  • Bake at 350 for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Note: I bake mine for only 15 minutes and find them much moister.

Tips:

  • Use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour for a healthier option.
  • Add a cup of raisins or chopped nuts for extra flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • To make sure the muffins are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of one. If it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before enjoying them.

Conclusion:

Bran muffins are a delicious and healthy breakfast option that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
