My grandma used to make bran muffins with some kind of cereal in them- All-Bran maybe? They were delicious, kinda sweet and nutty. Does anyone have a recipe?

Also I had a peach bran muffin once and was wondering if I could just put cut-up peaches into the regular recipe or would that mess up the consistency?

Rachel, could it have been made with Raisin Bran?  I have a recipe for muffins made with Raisin Bran, just have to dig it up!  This one makes a large batch that you can keep in refrigerator for days allowing you to make fresh muffins daily.

No, I think it was All-Bran, the cereal is kinda shaped like little twigs.

I remember that recipe Rachel, so I know it is out there.  I don't have it, but I know you are correct.

I think this might be what you are looking for.  They are really good.

BRAN MUFFINS

1 cup whole wheat flour

1-1/2 cup white flour

 

3 tsp. baking soda

1-1/2 tep. salt

3/4 cup brown sugar

1-1/2 cup natural bran

1 cup raisins

1 egg

1 egg white

2 cups buttermilk

1/2 cup sugar fee applesauce

1/8 cup molasses

3/4 cup water

In a large bowl,mix dry ingredients and make a well in thecenter.  Add the wet ingredients and mix well.  Cover and refrigerate overnight before baking.  Stir well.  Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.  Makes 2-1/2 dozen.  I have used dried cherries or cranberries for the raisins.
