Close To Mimis Honey Bran Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat ooven to 400 degrees, and place paper baking cups in each of 6 regular size muffin cups.
• Spray paper baking cups with cooking spray.
• In a small bowl, mix wheat bran, and boiling water, and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, beat milk, honey, oil, and egg with spoon until mixed well.
• Stir in bran mixture, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt just till flour is moist.
• Divide batter evenly into muffin cups.
• Sprinkle with granulated sugar if desired.
• Bake 15-20 minutes or till golden brown and tops spring back when touched lightly in center.
• Immediately remove from pan to cooling rack.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine pineapple juice and raisins. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in cereal. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, oil, honey, and eggs; mix well. Add cereal mixture, and mix well. Fold in the raisin mixture. Batter will be thin; it will thicken as it chills. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
• Stir chilled batter. Fill greased or paper lined muffin cups 3/4 full.
• Bake in a preheated 400 degree F (205 degree C) oven, for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Distribute about 1 tablespoon of the Glaze into 12 muffin tins and be sure to coat the bottom and sides of each muffin tin. (I did this just before I mixed the wet and dry ingredients so that the glaze was fairly liquid, and I just spread it evenly between all 12 tins rather than measure) In a medium bowl (or one with a pour spout) mix all the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl (I didn't do this I just put all the wet ingredients into the middle of the dry ingredients and mixed them all together), mix the "liquid" ingredients. Stir the liquids into the dry ingredients until just moistened. Fill muffin tins 2/3 full, bake at 350 for 20min, until a toothpick comes out clean (be sure not to fill the muffins too full because even at 2/3rds they spring up over the tops a little. Immediately invert the baked muffins onto foil or wax paper to cool. I put mine on wax paper, and then enjoyed eating the caramelized rings on the muffin tin - if you make them, you'll know what I'm talking about.

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine the cereal and buttermilk; mix well.
• Let stand for 5 minutes till cereal is softened.
• Blend in the oil and eggs.
• Add the flour, sugar, soda, powder, salt, and raisins.
• NOTE: Muffins should always be stirred in one direction only so as not to break down the batter.
• Put paper liners in the tins and spray lightly with vegetable spray.
• Fill 3/4 full.
• Bake 400 degrees for 18-20 minutes.
• The batter may be stored for up to a week in refrigerator, but I bake all of them at once and freeze them.
• Yield: about 30 muffins.
