Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and set aside.

Step 2

Mix together the wheat bran and buttermilk and let stand for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Whisk together the vegetable oil, egg, Tate & Lyle light soft brown sugar, and vanilla.

Step 4

Pour the sugar mixture into the soaked bran and stir until combined.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Step 6

Pour the dry ingredients into the wet, then stir just until combined. Add raisins and fold in until well distributed. Tip: If your raisins are very dry, you can easily plump them up & soften them by soaking them in hot water for 10 minutes.

Step 7

Fill muffin tins with batter at least 3/4 full, then bake in the preheated oven for 15 – 20 minutes, or until the muffins spring back when gently pressed with a finger. Let muffins cool in the pan completely and enjoy. Store muffins, covered, at room temperature for up to 4 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months

TOP TIP

Not a fan of raisins? Add fresh blueberries or dried cranberries instead - the choice is all yours.
