30 Day Health Muffins

Makes about 50. You need a very big mixing bowl!

Ingredients:

4 eggs 3/4 cup oil (187,5ml)
2 cups brown sugar (500ml)
4 cups buttermilk (1L)
2 cups digestive bran or oat bran (500ml)
250g seedless raisins
3 cups cake flour (750ml)
2 cups wholewheat flour (500ml)
5 tsp bicarbonate of soda (25ml)
1 tsp salt (5ml)

Method:

Beat eggs, oil, sugar & buttermilk together thoroughly with an electric hand beater or wooden spoon.
Add bran & raisins & mix in.
Add dry ingredients.
Bake immediately or keep raw mixture in an airtight container in the fridge until needed.
Place spoonfuls into oiled muffin tins (fill empty muffin hollows with a little water if only making a few).
Bake at 200° C or 400° F for 20 mins.

Baked muffins will keep very well in an airtight tin for a day or two. Raw mixture will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 30 days. I usually bake a few at a time, as I need them, so always have fresh muffins on hand.
