Raisin Bran Muffin

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 36 muffins

Ingredients

  • 1 box raisin bran cereal 15-18 ounces
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 5 cups flour
  • 5 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp ground cloves
  • 1 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 4 beaten eggs
  • 1 cup melted butter
  • 1 quart buttermilk
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine cereal, flour, baking soda, salt, and spices in an extra large mixing bowl.

  2. Add beaten eggs, vanilla, buttermilk, and melted butter.  Mix until well combined.

  3. Fill muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until done.

  4. The beauty of this recipe is that you can bake however many muffins you want at a time and save the batter in the fridge for at least 2 weeks.  This way you can bake up some fresh muffins whenever you want them. This recipe makes about 3 dozen small muffins or 18+ large muffins.  It really depends on the size of your muffin tins.  As the batter stores in your fridge it becomes thicker and the bran flakes will mostly disappear.  This does not change the taste or quality of the muffins at all.  The last muffin is just as delicious as the first muffin!!

Recipe Notes

You could add extra raisins, nuts or crasins, or maybe even chocolate chips to these muffins if desired. I love them just as written though.
