"WHEN I TOLD THEM I was submitting some church-supper recipes, everyone in the family said I should be sure to send along this one."

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 quart buttermilk
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 6 cups (10 ounces) bran flakes with raisins
  • 1/2 to 1 cup raisins
  • 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 5 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, beat eggs, buttermilk, oil and sugar. Stir in cereal and raisins. Sift together flour, baking soda and salt; add to egg mixture. Stir just until all ingredients are moistened. If desired, store batter, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. To bake, gently stir batter; fill greased muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 400° for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. (All of the batter does not need to be baked at once.)
If Cooking for Two: Bake muffins and freeze to enjoy months later.
