Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Bran cereal
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 Large egg
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin.
In a medium bowl, combine the bran cereal and milk. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes to soften the cereal.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
In the bowl with the softened bran cereal and milk, add the egg, honey, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the muffins dense.
Gently fold in the raisins, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ 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, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
