TORONTO BRAN MUFFINS

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Breads

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 1/4 c Hot milk
3 ea Eggs
2 tb Oil

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 overbeat 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 400 F, 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 400 for 20 to 25
minutes, or till golden brown. Wipe tops of each
while still warm in softened butter or margarine.
