| Toronto Bran Muffins
3 cups 40% Bran Flakes cereal
1/2 teaspoon Orange or vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups Hot milk
2 tablespoons Oil
9 ounces Box yellow cake mix
3 Eggs |
|
Combine cereal with hot milk in a 1-1/2 quart mixing bowl and let it stand about 10 minutes or until the cereal has absorbed all of the milk. With the electric mixer on high speed, beat in the oil and eggs till completely blended. Remove the beaters. Switch to a sturdy spoon and dump in the cake mix, stirring only to moisten all of it thoroughly, but don't overmix or over beat or the muffin texture will be heavy and tough. The batter will be a bit lumpy. Cover the bowl and let the batter stand 15 minutes while you preheat the oven to 400ºF. and grease 12 muffin tin wells in Crisco, evenly. Divide batter equally between the 12 wells. If you are using cupcake tin wells, you will have 15 muffins. Bake at 400ºF. for 20 to 25 minutes, or till golden brown. Wipe tops of each while still warm in softened butter or margarine. Posted to recipelu-digest Volume 01 Number 623 by GramWag <GramWag@aol.com> on Jan 28, 1998
