Ingredients for Alegra S Six Week Muffins

  • Raisin Bran Cereal
  • Sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • Oil
  • Buttermilk

How to Make Alegra S Six Week Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, bran, baking soda, salt, and spices.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in the raisins, nuts (optional), and milk.
  6. Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
