Bran Muffins (or Raisin bran)

Ok, so I tried this recipe with regular bran flakes and it was DELISH!!
So today I will try it with actual raisin bran, even though my kids don't like raisins--will they give in and eat the muffins anyway (last time they were a hit!) or will they pick out the raisins??  Time will tell...

RAISIN BRAN MUFFINS
4 cups raisin bran
2 cups milk
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
Add milk to flakes to soften; add oil and eggs.  Blend well.  In a separate bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients well, and then mix with flake mixture.  Distribute into greased (I use butter Crisco spray) muffin tins using a heaping tablespoon-sized cookie scoop.  Bake at 400 degrees about 16 minutes.  Makes about 24.

PS: They picked out the raisins! =(  What kid doesn't like raisins??  Oh, well, back to the regular bran.  I'd also like to try "Total" cereal.

  1. I tried the generic Total (from Walmart) in this recipe and my kiddos gobbled it up!

  2. I also would like to try cubed fruit in them; I've done this before with canned peaches. I tried Kiwi in them last time and my daughter told me she did not love them. But I thought they were ok, but not great with kiwi.
