Muffins
Bran Muffins are a wholesome, high-fiber treat made with hearty whole-wheat flour, wheat germ, and natural sweetness from raisins. Lightly sweet, tender, and satisfying, they are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a mid-day pick-me-up.
Ingredients
- ½ cup wheat germ
- ½ cup whole-wheat flour
- ½ cup bran
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ cup raisins
- ½ cup milk
- 1½ tablespoons corn oil
- 1 egg, beaten lightly
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Grease a muffin pan or line with paper liners.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine wheat germ, whole-wheat flour, bran, and baking powder until well blended.
- Add raisins and toss until coated.
- Stir in milk, corn oil, and beaten egg. Mix just until all ingredients are moistened. Do not overmix.
- Fill muffin cups about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 20–30 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from pans quickly to prevent muffins from becoming soggy.
