How to Make These Muffins
Get a large mixing bowl and add 6 cups raisin bran cereal. I used Cascade Farms Organic Raisin Bran Cereal.
Added to the 6 cups of cereal add sugar, flour and baking soda. Mix and add to the dry ingredients eggs, buttermilk and vegetable oil. That’s it. Unless you want to add extra raisins, chopped nuts or mini chocolate chips. Really what ever your family likes in muffins.
After mixing the ingredients together store in covered container in refrigerator for up to 6 weeks. To serve, scoop out the muffin batter into a greased standard muffin tin, the amount you need. Recipe will make 27 -36 muffins depending on size of your muffin tins.
Tip: Once the batter has been refrigerated do not sir mixture. You want the texture of the bran flakes and stirring will break it down.
I used an 2 quart-8 cup glass mixing bowl with a lid from pampered chef to mix and store in refrigerator.
