Bran Muffins Recipe
This is a recipe post. I loathe and despise recipe sites, but this is one I regularly need to look up. In Canadian measures, which is what I still do my baking in even after 30 years in Europe.
Mix well and let stand while collecting the rest:
- 1½ cups rye bran
- 1 c. milk
- ½ tsp. salt
Ready:
- ⅓ c. oil
- 1 egg
Ready:
- ⅔ c. brown sugar
- 1 c. flour
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- ½ c. raisins
Mix the wets. Stir in the drys. Fill muffin pan. Bake 25 minutes at 180℃. Makes 11 muffins because my muffin pan has one broken cup. Uses rye bran because the local windmill has that “left over” as animal feed after milling rye – apparently very few people in the Netherlands use bran anyway, and rye bran even less so. Instead of flour and baking powder use zelfrijzend bakmeel.
Edit: reduce sugar to ½ cup and add 1 tbsp. of molasses to improve flavor and color and reduce sweetness.
