Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.5 cups Wheat bran
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Buttermilk
- 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Raisins (optional)
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the flour, wheat bran, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold gently until just mixed. Do not overmix.
If using, gently fold in the raisins.
Cover the batter and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The batter can be kept for up to 1 week.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin.
Scoop the desired amount of batter into the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Repeat the process throughout the week to enjoy fresh muffins whenever you'd like!
