Ingredients

½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
2 ½ cups Raisin Bran cereal
1/3 cup granulated sugar
3 Tablespoon light brown sugar
1 ¼ cups buttermilk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Line a muffin tin with liners. Use regular-size muffin tins, or jumbo size. We like the jumbo muffins and this bran muffin recipe holds up well in a larger size.
In large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and white and brown sugars.
½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ¼ teaspoon salt, 3 Tablespoon light brown sugar, 1/3 cup granulated sugar
Place cereal in separate bowl, and crunch the bran flakes into smaller pieces. Your your hands and just crush the cereal.
2 ½ cups Raisin Bran cereal
Add crushed cereal to flour mixture and stir to combine.
In medium bowl, mix together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
1 ¼ cups buttermilk, 1/3 cup vegetable oil, 1 egg, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
Let the combined muffin mix sit on the counter for about 40 minutes to allow the wet mixture to soften the cereal. You can also refrigerate the batter and use another time.
Pour batter into prepared muffin tins, filling 3/4 high. Sprinkle tops of muffins with sugar (your choice, use white sugar, brown sugar, or both).
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Notes

These freeze great! Place in a zip top bag or freezer-friendly container and freeze for 2-3 months. To eat, remove and let thaw on counter, or put in microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
