MAMA'S MAKE-AHEAD BRAN MUFFINS



Mama's Make-Ahead Bran Muffins image

Mama made these for decades when she was a working mother (back in the day when most mamas didn't work). These are easy, so moist, and so good. And because you make up a big batch that's kept in the refrigerator and baked just a few at a time, they are a lifesaver for busy cooks. My kids can scoop 1 or 2 into a tin and pop it in the oven in the morning for their own hot and hearty breakfast. A lovely addition to a brunch because they can be prepared ahead and baked right before serving.

Time 4h25m

Yield 72

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups boiling water
2 cups bran cereal (such as All-Bran® Bran Buds®)
3 cups white sugar
1 ½ cups shortening
4 eggs
4 cups buttermilk
5 cups all-purpose flour
4 cups shredded bran cereal
2 cups raisins
5 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Pour boiling water over Bran Buds® cereal in a medium bowl and let stand.
  • Beat sugar, shortening, and eggs together in a very large bowl that has a lid (I use a large Tupperware® bowl) with an electric mixer until creamy. Add buttermilk, followed by bran-water mixture. Add flour, shredded bran cereal, raisins, baking soda, and salt. Stir until just combined; do not overmix and don't stir again.
  • Let sit in the refrigerator at least 4 to 6 hours before baking.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease and flour muffin tins or line with paper liners.
  • Scoop batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes.

MAGIC MELTDOWN BRAN MUFFINS



Magic Meltdown Bran Muffins image

sadly, i did not come up with the name but these are really great muffins all the same. this recipe is from my rapidly deteriorating goddess in the kitchen cookbook (by marjie lapanja) and i figured here would be a good place to keep this. just a few notes: i make my own applesauce for this. just cut up a few apples, put them in a pot, add water and boil 'til saucey. i've found that a microplane is perfect for grating the carrots and, as for the fresh fruit, anything will work really. i like a combo of mango and crushed pineapple but pretty any non-citrus fruit is fine. prep time and cooking times are both estimated.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/3 cup whole wheat flour
2/3 cup unbleached white flour
1/4 cup wheat germ
1 1/2 cups unprocessed oat bran (or wheat bran)
1/4 cup cornmeal
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoons molasses
2/3 cup applesauce
1 1/3 cups low-fat milk
1/2 cup carrot, finely grated
1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen, both work just fine)
1/2 cup fresh fruit, chopped

Steps:

  • preheat oven to 375 (F).
  • in a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients (first 8 ingredients).
  • in another large bowl combine the wet ingredients (next 6 ingredients).
  • pour the wet into the dry and mix until just combined.
  • gently stir in the carrots and fruit.
  • scoop batter into muffin tins, filling each cup to the top.
  • baking time seems to vary and i'm not entirely sure why but set the timer for 20 minutes and check on the muffins every 5 minutes after that. it'll probably take about 40 minutes. basically, you want your muffins to pass the old toothpick test. keep in mind though, a little underdone is ok as these freeze and reheat wonderfully.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be. If your bananas are not ripe enough, you can ripen them quickly by placing them in a paper bag with an apple for a few days.
  • Mash the bananas well: Make sure to mash the bananas until they are completely smooth. This will help to ensure that your muffins are light and fluffy.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: This will help to prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust and a moist interior.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before serving: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
