Old Wessex Oat Bran Muffins Recipes

DEEP DARK OLD RECIPE BRAN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 18 muffin cups, or line with paper muffin liners. Whisk the bran, flour, salt, and baking soda in a mixing bowl; set aside.
• Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the buttermilk, sugar, molasses, and melted shortening until smooth. Stir in the bran mixture along with the raisins until no dry lumps remain. Pour into the prepared muffin tins, filling them no more than 2/3 full.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

JAM FILLED OAT BRAN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425'F.
• Lightly grease your muffin tin(s).
• In a med. size bowl with a hand mixer whip up the water and the flax seed meal. In about a couple of minutes this should become a thick and creamy liquid.
• In a large bowl combine the oat bran, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
• In a small bowl mix the flax seed mixture, milk and oil.
• Stir in the walnuts if using and then add to the dry ingredients until just combined, don't over mix!
• Fill your prepared muffin cups less then half full, then put a dab of your jam on top of the batter, then put more batter until the muffin cup is 2/3 full.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes, depending on how your oven is. I used a skewer to test the side to see if it was done. I didn't put it down the middle as the jam is there.
• Cool the muffins in the tin for about 3 minutes, then remove to a rack to a wire cool.
• Bon Appetit!
