1 (20 ounce) box Raisin Bran cereal or 8 -9 cups Raisin Bran cereal
2 cups buttermilk
2 cups skim milk
2 - 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 - 2 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour or 2 -2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 1/4 teaspoons nutmeg
1 1/8 teaspoons allspice
5/8 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
3 tablespoons molasses
4 tablespoons artificial vanilla flavoring

1
Preheat oven to 400, prep a muffin tin.
2
Reserve 1/2 cup of skim milk and 1/2 cup buttermilk.
3
Mix remaining buttermilk and skim milk with cereal. Allow to sit through following steps.
4
Sift together sugar, brown sugar, flours, baking soda, baking powder, spices. Make sure everything is evenly mixed and distributed.
5
Beat together eggs, molasses, vanilla, oil, and the reserved milk from step one. Change the amount of oil as desired - these work well as both lowfat muffins and as high-rising, moist, munchy indulgent muffins with the full amount. 2/3 cup is a good compromise.
6
Add the flour-sugar dry mixture to the soaked bran flakes. Stir.
7
Add the oil-egg-milk wet mixture to the batter. Stir.
8
Add more raisins to taste, more whole wheat flour or milk to adjust consistency of batter.
9
Bake for 16-20 minutes per batch in the 400 degree oven.
