MOM'S BRAN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Find the biggest bowl you have in your kitchen.
• Pour Kellog's Original All-Bran Twigs and bran flakes into the bowl. Boil water and pour over the top. Immediately add the Crisco shortening so that it melts while the water is still hot. Mix until the shortening is completely melted.
• In a separate bowl mix the buttermilk, eggs and sugar and then combine with the bran mixture.
• Finally, add the remaining dry ingredients (i.e. flour, salt and baking soda) to the bran and mix well.
• For best results, refrigerate batter for 24 hours (do not stir mixture after it's been refrigerated).
• Generously spray muffin cups; fill each approximately 2/3 full (an ice cream scoop provides the perfect amount of batter). Avoid using cupcake liners because you will lose too much of the muffin.
• Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven for 20 minutes.
• Serve warm with butter and a cold glass of milk or hot coffee.
• Store baked muffins in an air-tight container.
