Raisin Bran Muffins

Some may argue there is no ultimate bran muffin -- mostly because they think bran muffins taste like cardboard and dirt. But I challenge one of those bran naysayers to try one of these bad boys -- especially if they're having trouble with their plumbing.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups of bran

1 cup milk

1/2 cup apple sauce

1 egg

2/3 cup brown sugar

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1 tsp. each of baking soda, baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1 cup raisins

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 F.

Step 2

Pour milk, apple sauce, egg, brown sugar and vanilla into a large bowl and mix thoroughly.

Step 3

Stir bran, flours, baking soda, baking powder and salt together in separate bowl. Pour dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Stir in the raisins.

Step 4
Distribute the mixture into a greased muffin tin (12 count) or paper muffin cups if you prefer not to use grease.

Step 5
Place in preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until they're done.

Tip
If you press down on the top and they spring back up, they're done.
