B is for Bran Muffins

My darling friend, Ashley Q, has the best bran muffin recipe ever. Not only are these bran muffins delicious, but they are filled with fiber--approx. 9 grams per serving -- maybe I'm making that up, I can't remember. Point being, they contain a lot of fiber. After reading my friend Logan's post, I decided this week to finally make the muffins and let him try one to see if they help. And let me tell you, these babies are miracle workers. Logan is forever indebted to me.


To all my dear readers, here is the recipe:

1 cup water
3 cups 100% bran
1/2 cube of butter-melted
3/4 cup honey
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking soda
2 cups buttermilk

Boil 1 cup water in microwave for 1 minute, then add the 3 cups of bran and the 1/2 cube of melted butter to the water and mix (set aside to let bran soften).In a seperate bowl mix together the remaining ingredients. Then add the bran/butter/water mix to the remaining mix and mix them together. Poor into greased muffin tins.


Cook at 375 degrees for approx. 15 minutes (sometimes it takes longer)
