All Bran Loaf Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a 9x5 loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
• Into a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs and buttermilk and whisk well to combine. Add the grated apple, melted butter and vanilla and stir to mix. Add the bran cereal and let it sit for 5 minutes to absorb liquid.
• While you're waiting, in another bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Combine the all purpose flour, oat bran, cane sugar, muscavado, pecans, baking soda, baking powder, sea salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir to mix. Add the wet ingredients in with the dry and stir just to combine, do not overmix.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan, it should come up no more than 3/4 way up the pan. Sprinkle the top of the loaf with a handful of oat bran and brown or turbinado sugar. Bake on the middle rack for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Allow it to cool completely before removing it from the pan.
• Slice with a serrated knife and serve with butter on the side.
• Loaf can be kept covered at room temperature for 3 days or for 5 days in the fridge.

Steps:

• Grease and line your loaf tin, and preheat the oven to 170C/fan 150C/gas 5.
• Use a cup to measure the ingredients (I use my small measuring jug featured in the photograph.)
• Pour the All bran and milk into a bowl. Leave the All Bran to soak up the milk (about 5-10 mins.)
• Add the self raising flour and sugar to your mixture and stir.
• Cut up your dried fruit (if using prunes and apricots) and dust with some of the self raising flour. Add the fruit to your mixture and stir.
• The mixture should be thick and gloopy, if it isn't you may wish to add a bit more milk. Transfer the mixture to your loaf tin and put in the oven for 1 hr -1 hr 30 mins. Check on the loaf after 1 hr by putting a knife through the middle, if it comes out clean the loaf is cooked, if not leave it in a little longer.
