Sweet Bran Muffins Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2½ cups flour, spooned in
• 2 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp baking soda
• 1½ tsp salt
• 1½ cups bakers bran (natural bran)
• 1 egg beaten
• 1 cup Crosby’s Fancy Molasses
• ¾ cup milk
• ¼ cup butter, melted

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line muffin tins with muffin papers.
2. In a large bowl combine dry ingredients.
3. In another bowl whisk together the wet ingredients.
4. Add wet mixture to dry and lightly mix the two ingredients together. The batter should remain well mixed but lumpy. (If it is beaten too much, it will become glutenous and tough)
5. Fill muffin cups to 2/3 full.
6. Bake for 15 – 20 minutes until firm and nicely browned.
7. Allow to cool on a wire rack & enjoy!
