Ahead Bran Muffins

Bran Muffins are one of my favorite breakfasts ever! Make the batter up ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake. No need to ever stir the batter once you’ve refrigerated! These muffins are incredibly light, fluffy, flavorful and absolutely delicious!

love the simplicity of it. you are making a batch makeup in about 10 mins and stick it within the refrigerator. when you’re in a hurry for breakfast, preheat the oven and scoop a number of the batter into a muffin tin. Stick them inside the oven, do your hair and BAM. The muffins are executed and also you appear to be a hero for having breakfast prepared for the entire family very quickly!

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup boiling water
• 2½ tsp. baking soda
• 3 cups bran cereal
• ½ cup oil (canola, coconut, etc)
• ½ cup Truvia Baking Blend (or 1 cup sugar)
• 2 eggs
• 2 cups low-fat buttermilk*
• 2½ cups white whole wheat flour
• ½ tsp. salt

DIRECTIONS

1. In a medium bowl, stir baking soda into boiling water and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, stir together Truvia and oil. Add eggs and mix in well.
3. Stir in buttermilk, flour and salt. Pour the soda water in and mix well.
4. Stir in the bran cereal and mix well. Store this mixture in an air-tight container in the refrigerator and use as needed.
5. This will keep for up to six weeks in the fridge and you will never have to stir again! When you're ready to bake up a batch, line muffin tin with paper liners or grease generously and fill each cup ⅔ full with mixture. Bake at 375ºF for 20 minutes. This recipe is easily doubled, tripled, etc!
