Buttermilk Bran Muffins image

The first time I had these I was 9 and staying at someone's house. When the lady said she was making Bran Muffins for breakfast I was pretty sure I was going to have a miserable meal. Boy was I wrong!! These are fantastic! I usually cut back on the sugar some as they are a bit on the sweet side if made according to the recipe. The batter keeps very well in the refrigerator, for a week or so, so you can bake fresh each morning as many muffins as you need. If you are watching your fat intake, try my Recipe #101631.

Time 27m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups wheat bran (NOT bran cereal*)
1 cup sugar (I only use 1/2 cup)
2 1/2 cups flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup oil (I use part unsweetened apple sauce)
2 cups buttermilk
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons molasses

Steps:

  • Mix first 5 ingredients together in a large bowl. Stir in remaining ingredients. If you wish, you can also add chopped apples, raisins or other dried fruit at this point.
  • Fill greased muffin cups 2/3 full with batter. Bake at 350°F for 16-18 minutes or until they test done with a toothpick.
  • Best served warm with or without butter.
  • *Wheat bran looks like sawdust and is usually sold in the health food section or at a bulk food store.

These muffins were perfect! I made them for my family and they loved them. They were light and fluffy, and the buttermilk gave them a nice tang. I will definitely be making these again!

These muffins were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less flour.

I love these muffins! They're so moist and flavorful. I always make a double batch so I can freeze some for later.

These muffins were okay. They weren't anything special, but they weren't bad either. I probably wouldn't make them again.

I was a little disappointed with these muffins. I found them to be a bit dry and bland. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more sugar or fruit.

These muffins were delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfect. I especially loved the crunchy oat topping.

I've made these muffins several times now and they always turn out great. They're so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love that they're also relatively healthy, with the addition of bran and buttermilk.

These muffins were a hit with my family! They were light and fluffy, with a perfect balance of sweetness and tang. I loved the addition of bran, which gave them a nice nutty flavor. I will definitely be making these again!
