This recipe was developed with Kellogg's All Bran cereal I have never used any other bran cereal for this so I cannot guarantee good results with anything else - if desired a crumb topping can be sprinkled on top, see my Kittencal's Banana-Almond Muffins With Almond Streusel for the topping mixture.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup white sugar
1 cup hot buttermilk (heat in microwave until hot)
1 cup all-bran cereal
1 large egg
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup pureed banana (1 cup is okay also)
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2-1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
1 cup raisins (optional)
1/2 chopped walnuts (optional)
Directions:
1. Set oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Set the oven rack to second lowest position.
3. Spray 12 muffin cups with non-stick cooking spray, and line with paper liners.
4. Set the muffin trays on a baking sheet (the baking sheet is optional).
5. In a medium bowl stir the HOT buttermilk together with the All Bran cereal, and let stand for about 6 minutes.
6. Meanwhile puree the banana.
7. After the 6 minutes, transfer the bran mixture to a large bowl, and add in the pureed banana; mix to combine.
8. Mix the two sugars together, then add to the bran/banana mixture with the egg, vanilla and oil; blend well to combine.
9. Mix together the flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder and cinnamon; add to the banana mixture; mix gently to make a soft batter.
10. Fold in nuts and raisins (if using).
11. With an ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups.
12. Bake about 22-28 minutes or until muffins test done.
13. *NOTE* Although it is not necessary, I like to place the muffin tins on a baking sheet to bake in the oven.
