I’m recipe crazy these days!
I promise my crafting days are not over! I’ve got a couple of projects up my sleeve!
But there’s just something about summers that makes me want to cook for my family…
I like the kids to eat healthy when they are at home, so I bake. And bake. And bake…

But there’s just something about summers that makes me want to cook for my family…
I like the kids to eat healthy when they are at home, so I bake. And bake. And bake…
This week it was a classic:
I think almost every family must have this recipe tucked into their recipe boxes somewhere!
I can remember eating this muffin as a kid! And now my kids eat them and love them!
The best part about this recipe is that the batter can stay in your fridge for up to 2 weeks. (I like to use it up in a week though.) So you can have fresh baked muffins everyday if you want! Awesome!
Here’s How-To:
A Pail Full o’ Muffins
Ingredients
- 3 cups bran
- 3 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup oil
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 cup raisins
- 3 cups flour
- 3 tsp baking powder
Instructions
- In one bowl, combine the buttermilk and bran. Let sit for about 5-10 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, beat together oil, eggs, and sugars.
- Then add vanilla, baking soda, salt and raisins, to the egg/oil/sugar mix.
- Add bran mixture, combine.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour and baking powder, then add this to the muffin mixture. Gently combine.
- Fill muffin cups about ⅔ full.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 25 minutes.
Notes
This batter can be kept in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. So you can bake as big or small batches as you would like! All together, you can get about 24 good sized muffins from this batter.
