6 Muffins
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup bran cereal (not flakes)
- 1/4 cup boiling water
- 2 tbsp Manila Coco Virgin Coconut Oil
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
- 2 tbsp raisins or other chopped dried fruit
- 1/2 cup unbleached flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
Instructions:
Pour boiling water over the bran cereal in a mixing bowl. Stir to mix and let
stand 5 minutes. Add the Manila Coco Virgin Coconut Oil, sugar,
egg, buttermilk, grated ginger and raisins to the bran and mix well. In a
small bowl, mix together the flour and baking soda. Stir into the bran mixture
and mix well. The batter can be kept tightly covered in the refrigerator for
about a week.
To bake, preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil a muffin tin if you are
making all 6 muffins or place a foil muffin cup in a custard cup if you are
baking just one muffin. Don't stir the batter if it has been keeping in the
refrigerator. Fill the muffin tin or muffin cups 2/3 full of batter. Bake the
muffins for 12 - 14 minutes or until the top springs lightly back to the
touch.
