Total Time 31 minutes mins
- 1 ½ cups buttermilk, at room temperature
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- ¼ cup apple sauce
- ⅓ cup dark brown sugar
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- ¼ cup molasses
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups wheat bran
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup raisins
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line 18 muffin cups with paper liners. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk, oil, apple sauce, brown sugar, eggs, molasses and vanilla extract together and set aside.
In a separate medium bowl, mix together the wheat bran, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together.
Mix the wet and dry ingredients together until just combined, then fold in the raisins.
Fill the muffin cups almost to the top. You should get about 18.
Bake for 16-18 minutes, until a wooden skewer inserted in a center muffin comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Serve as is or split in half with a pat of butter. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. They also freeze well for up to 6 weeks.
