APPLE BUTTERMILK BRAN MUFFINS
Bethany Weathersby
1 c. margarine
2 c. sugar
1/2 t. salt
4 eggs
5 t. baking soda
1 qt. buttermilk
5 c. flour
3 c. all-bran or bran buds
chopped apple
Preheat oven to 400. Butter muffin tins. Cream
together margarine, sugar, salt and eggs. Add baking
soda to buttermilk in a large bowl. Alternating in
thirds, add flour, bran and buttermilk to creamed
mixture. Read note to determine how much apple to add
in. Pour into muffin cups. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
Notes by Bethany : This makes about one gallon of batter and can
be saved in the fridge for up to 6 weeks (non-metal,
tightly sealed container). When ready to bake, for
every 3 cups of batter, add 1 cup finely chopped
apple.
