Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 1/2 cup Neutral Oil Adds moisture and richness; substitute with melted coconut oil for a unique flavor.
  • 2 cups Buttermilk Provides acidity for a tender crumb; can be swapped with 1 1/2 cups milk and 1/2 cup plain yogurt.
  • 4 cups Raisin Bran Cereal This main ingredient is essential for fiber and moisture retention.
  • 1 cup Sugar Sweetens the muffins; consider reducing to 3/4 cup for a less sweet option.
  • 2 pieces Eggs Bind the mixture and provide structure.
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Essential for muffin structure; gluten-free blends can be used, though traditional Raisin Bran Muffins are not gluten-free.
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Soda A leavening agent that helps the muffins rise.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances the overall flavor profile.
For Serving
  • Butter Spread warm on the muffins for added richness.
  • Honey A drizzle of honey elevates the sweetness and adds a delightful touch to your breakfast experience.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Raisin Bran Muffins
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Raisin Bran cereal, buttermilk, and neutral oil. Stir the mixture gently to ensure even distribution and allow it to soak for about 15-20 minutes.
  2. After the cereal has soaked, add the sugar, eggs, and all-purpose flour to the bowl. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, mix the ingredients until just incorporated.
  3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare your muffin tin by lining it with paper liners or lightly greasing each cavity.
  4. Fill the muffin tin with the batter, about three-quarters full.
  5. Carefully bake for 12-14 minutes. When the tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean, the muffins are ready.
  6. Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
