"poop Muffins" AKA Refrigerator Bran Muffins

Before I even begin to explain the recipe..NO, I did not use Window Wipes as an ingredient in the recipe, they just happened to make an appearance in the picture. =)

"Poop Muffins" are what my daughter calls these. Because....well, you figure it out. These are Bran muffins and SUPER good! If your looking to get more Fiber in your diet, this is a GREAT way to do that. I got this recipe from my mother in law, who happened to make up some for Mother's day. They were delicious. We couldn't keep our hands off of them. The recipe makes a HUGE batch because you can store the remaining batter in the fridge for 5-7 weeks.

Ingredients:
2 C. boiling water
2 C. 100% Nabisco bran Cereal
1/2 C. Corn Oil
3 C. Sugar
4 eggs, beaten
1 qt. buttermilk
5 C. White Whole Wheat Flour
5 tsp. baking Soda
1 tsp. salt
4 C. Kellogg's All Bran Cereal
2 C. Chopped Walnuts (optional if you like a crunch in your muffins)
1 C. raisins
1 C. chopped dates(you can get creative with the chopped/dried fruit you like in your muffins)

Directions:

Pour boiling water over 100% nabisco bran cereal. set aside to cool

In a LARGE bowl, cream together corn oil and sugar. Add eggs and buttermilk.

In a seperate bowl, mix flour, baking soda, salt and add to the buttermilk mixture. Now add the cooked bran mixture into that bowl. Next, mix in the All Bran Cereal, walnuts, raisins and dates only until moistened. Store in a glass or plastic covered bowl in the refrigerator. Will keep 5-7 weeks.

When ready to bake, spoon into greased tiny muffin tins and bake at 400 degrees F. for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Enjoy!!
