Raisin Bran Muffins

  • 12

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups flour (I used white whole wheat)
  • 1 T baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 cups Raisin Bran
  • 1 cup milk (skim is great)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 2 T oil

Preparation

Step 1

*Preheat your oven to 380 degrees. (You'll be increasing to 400 after putting the muffins in the oven. An Alton Brown trick that I love!)
*Line a 12-cup muffin tin with papers liners or grease heavily.
*Mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and cereal. Toss.
*Add the milk and let sit for 3 minutes.
*Stir in the egg, applesauce, sugar, and oil. Stir until just moistened.
*I use a 1/3 measuring cup and it seems to fill each muffin perfectly. I get exactly 12 with no leftover batter.
*I always, always, always, put a cookie sheet under my muffin tin. It keeps the muffins from burning on the bottom and provides a more even heat. Place the muffins into the oven and crank the heat to 400 degrees. Bake for 18-20 minutes.
