My college roommate, Allegra, used to make these bran muffins. This was in the eighties when bran muffins came into fashion. They are absolutely delicious. The recipe makes a very big batch so that you can keep them in the freezer and always have them on hand.

  • Prep: 15 mins
  • Cook: 20 mins
  • Yields: Makes about 28 muffins

Ingredients

1 cup bran

1 cup boiling water

½ cup scant oil

2 cups raisins

2½ teaspoons baking soda

¼ cup molasses

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 cups bran (3 all together)
