Mom's Bran Muffins

I've been craving Bran Muffins for a while so I finally got around to making them.

My recipe is based on my mom's original recipe with just a few changes.

Here's what you'll need:

 16oz box of Bran Flakes (I always use Great Value brand)

2 1/2 c sugar

5 c flour (1 c wheat flour and 4 c white flour)

5 t baking soda

2 t salt

4 T Crisco oil

4 eggs

1 quart buttermilk

Mix all ingredients together.  Make sure you have a GIANT bowl and sturdy spatula ready for this large mixture.  Stir really well so that everything gets mixed nicely.  

The refrigerated batter keeps for up to 6 weeks.

Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes 

or 12-15 if they are mini muffins.

They are great right out of the oven with a little butter.

Enjoy!
