Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Wheat bran
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar (packed)
• 0.75 cup Raisins
• 1 medium Granny Smith apple (peeled, cored, and diced)
• 1 large Egg
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the wheat bran, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, salt, and brown sugar. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.

Step 3

Stir in the raisins and diced apple, making sure they are well coated in the dry mixture to prevent them from sinking during baking.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined; do not overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for about 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your delicious cinnamon raisin and apple bran muffins!
