CLASSIC BRAN MUFFINS

Yield 12 Muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups wheat bran
1 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup raisins or dates

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners. Mix together wheat bran and buttermilk; let stand for 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh bran. Fresh bran is more flavorful and nutritious than old bran. If you can, buy bran from a local mill or health food store.
  • Soak the bran overnight. Soaking the bran overnight will help to soften it and make it easier to digest. You can also grind the bran into a flour before using it.
  • Add some sweetness. Bran muffins can be a bit bland, so it's a good idea to add some sweetness to them. You can use sugar, honey, or maple syrup.
  • Add some spices. Spices can help to add flavor and depth to bran muffins. Some good choices include cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature. Baking the muffins at a high temperature will help them to rise and brown properly.

Conclusion:

Bran muffins are a healthy and delicious breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect bran muffins every time.
