Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 15 cups Raisin bran cereal
- 3 cups Granulated sugar
- 5 cups All-purpose flour
- 5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 4 Large eggs
- 1 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 quart Buttermilk
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a very large mixing bowl, combine the raisin bran cereal, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In another large bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Then add the vegetable oil, unsweetened applesauce, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir gently, but thoroughly, until no dry streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the batter to an airtight container. Store the batter in the refrigerator for up to 6 weeks.
When you're ready to bake muffins, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
Scoop batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Cool the muffins in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining batter as needed.
Serve fresh or store cooled muffins in an airtight container for up to a few days. Enjoy!
