Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Bran cereal
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.5 cup Plain yogurt
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Raisins
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the bran cereal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to mix evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, milk, yogurt, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to ensure the muffins stay tender.
Fold in the raisins and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your Absolutely Delicious Bran Muffins!
