By catgirl

Hint: I find this tastes better if you refrigerate batter for 24 hours before baking first batch of muffins.

• 3 cups sugar
• 1 cup liquid shortening
• 5 teaspoons soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 4 cups Kellogg's All Bran cereal
• 2 cups Nabisco 100% All Bran cereal

• 4 eggs, beaten
• 5 cups flour
• 1 quart buttermilk

Preparation

Step 1

Pour boiling water over Nabisco 100% All Bran cereal and cool.

In extra-large bowl cream shortening and sugar. Add eggs and buttermilk. Add Kellogg's All Bran cereal.

Sift together dry ingredients and add to above mixture a small amount at a time, mixing after each addition. Fold in soaked bran cereal.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes.

Batter keeps in refrigerator for 6 weeks.
