My recipe for classic bran muffins. Well sort of. No raisins to be found here. I substitute blueberries in for the raisins. A much better choice in my opinion. But feel free to replace the blueberries with raisins. Or go half and half. That’s entirely up to you.
1 1/2 cups wheat bran
1 cup buttermilk
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup blueberries
Method:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
1. Stir wheat bran into the buttermilk and let stand for 5 minutes.
2. Beat in the remaining wet ingredients into the wheat bran mixture.
3. Add the dry ingredients. Fold in the raisins.
4. Fold in blueberries
5. Spoon into muffins tins. I prefer muffin top pans.
6. Bake until the centre springs back when touched.
