Mmmmm, Muffins! Normally not much of a muffin fan, but with this really easy and yummy recipe I may turn into a muffin fan soon. Even the kids loved these ones!
Watch the changes I made, because that means you can customize it to your tastes too. I replaced dates with Craisins, and used Raisin Bran instead of just plain bran flakes.
It seems like it might be a little complicated with the three separate mixtures, but really, you can just dump it all together if you'd like.
Plus it keeps in the fridge for 3 months! Yay for convenience!
1 cup margarine/butter
2 cup sugar
4 eggs
Cream together in a large bowl.
1 quart buttermilk
2 cup boiling water
Mix together in a pitcher.
5 tsp. soda
5 cup flour
1 tbsp. salt
Mix together in a separate bowl.
Add mixtures 2 and 3 alternately to mixture 1. Then stir in 1/2 box All Bran cereal, 2 cups Bran Flakes (I used Raisin Bran), 1 cup chopped pecans, 1 cup dates (I hate dates, I used Craisins - it was delicious!)
Bake at 400° for 13 minutes. The original recipe called for a 20 minute baking time, totally burned, then tried 17 minutes, still burned, then I tried 13 minutes, they were perfect. I would watch them in your oven to see which time works for you...
This recipe makes 5 dozen muffins. I know that's a lot of muffins, but this will keep in your refrigerator for up to 3 months, just keep it in a covered container. This way, you can totally make a dozen or one at a time! Perfect!
