Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Quaker Bran Cereal
- 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 1.25 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1.25 cups Milk
- 0.25 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Optional: Raisins or chopped nuts
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Quaker Bran Cereal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, gently fold the mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix. If desired, fold in raisins or chopped nuts at this stage.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin tin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
