Always Ready Bran Muffins
Ingredients:
3 cUnprocessed wheat bran 1 c;Water, boiling 1 cSugar 1/2 cMargarine 2Eggs 2 1/2 cFlour, unbleached 2 1/2 ts Baking soda 1 ts Salt 2 cButtermilk Raisins (opt.) Pecans (opt.)
Method:
*I use whole wheat flour and add water to the recipe. Put 1 c of the wheat bran in a small bowl.Add the boiling water, stir once and let stand to soften. Cream the margarine and sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat the eggs slightly and add to the margarine mixture, mixing well. Combine the flour soda and salt in a mixing bowl. Combine the wheat bran, the softened bran, and the flour mixture, and then combine with the egg/margarine/sugar mixture alternately with the buttermilk. Stir until thoroughly mixed. Pour into a plastic container with a tight lid.Store in the refrigerator for a minimum of 12 hours and a maximum of 6 weeks. Makes 2 dozen. These muffins are made, stored in the refrigerator, and baked whenever they are wanted.About 25 minutes before serving, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spoon the batter into teflon-lined or buttered muffin tins, filling them 2/3 full.Bake 18 minutes and serve. I like to add rasins and pecans to the muffin tins before cooking.
