BRAN MUFFINS

Provided by By Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Side Dish

Time 50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 paper baking cups or cooking spray to grease pan
1 1/4 cups Fiber One™ cereal or 2 cups bran cereal flakes
1 1/3 cups milk
1/2 cup raisins, if desired
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 large egg
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400°F. Place a paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups, or spray just the bottoms of the cups with cooking spray.
  • Place cereal in a resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal the bag. Roll over cereal with a rolling pin or bottle, or press with bottom of small saucepan, to crush cereal into fine crumbs.
  • In a medium bowl, stir the crushed cereal, milk, raisins and vanilla until well mixed. Let stand about 5 minutes or until cereal has softened. Beat in the oil and egg with a fork.
  • In another medium bowl, stir the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon until well mixed. Stir flour mixture into cereal mixture just until flour is moistened (batter will be lumpy). Spoon the batter into the cups, dividing batter evenly.
  • Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If muffins were baked in paper baking cups, immediately remove from pan to a cooling rack. If muffins were baked in a sprayed pan, leave in pan about 5 minutes, then remove from pan to a cooling rack. Serve warm if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose a cereal that is low in sugar and high in fiber. This will help to make your muffins healthier.
  • If you don't have any cereal flakes on hand, you can use rolled oats instead.
  • Be sure to measure your ingredients correctly. This will help to ensure that your muffins turn out properly.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make your muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. This will help to prevent them from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. This will help to ensure that they are cooked through but not overcooked.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting or serving.

Conclusion:

Cereal flake muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They are also a great way to use up leftover cereal. With so many different recipes to choose from, you're sure to find one that you'll love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy muffin recipe, be sure to give cereal flake muffins a try.
