How to Make Honey Raisin Bran Muffins

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
If raisins are hard, soak them in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain well.
In a small bowl, combine 1 cup milk and 1 tablespoon white vinegar. Set aside for 5 minutes to sour.
In a large bowl, whisk 1 large egg with a fork.
Whisk in 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1/4 cup honey, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Add the soured milk mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir in 1 1/2 cups 100% bran cereal and 1/2 cup raisins.
Stir gently to combine. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes to allow the bran to soften.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fill each muffin liner about 2/3 full.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
