These bran muffins are a delicious source of fiber! My family has them almost every morning. They're great! You may substitute dates for the raisins if you wish.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups wheat bran
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • ⅔ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup raisins

Instructions
 

  • Gather all ingredients.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
  • Mix wheat bran and buttermilk together in a large bowl; let stand for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, beat brown sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla together in a separate bowl until light and fluffy; stir into buttermilk mixture.
  • Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together; stir into buttermilk mixture until just blended. Fold in raisins; spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 2/3 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 15 to 20 minutes. Cool in the tin briefly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
