Servings: persons

softened unsalted butter, for the pan
1 2/3 cups wheat bran (not bran breakfast cereal)
1 2/3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/4 cup superfine sugar
1/3 cup mild honey, plus
1 tablespoon mild honey
2 large eggs, at room temperature, beaten
1 cup whole milk
1 cup seedless raisin

1
Position a rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 400u00b0.
2
Brush the insides of 10 muffins cups with softened butter, then brush the top of the pan.
3
Whisk the bran, flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
4
Beat the butter in the bowl of a heavy-duty stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on high speed until smooth, about 1 minute.
5
Gradually add the sugar; beat, scraping the sides of the bowl often with a silicone spatula until the mixture is very light in color and texture, about 5 minutes.
6
Add the honey and beat for 1 minute.
7
Gradually add in the eggs, beating well after each addition.
8
Decrease mixer speed to low; in thirds, beat in the bran mixture, alternating with two equal additions of milk, scraping down the sides of the bowl often, and mix until smooth.
9
Stir in the raisins.
10
Using a 2 1/2 inch diameter ice-cream scoop, portion the batter, rounded side up, into the cups.
11
Bake for 10 minutes; decrease oven temperature to 375u00b0 and continue baking until the tops of the muffins are browned and a cake tester comes out clean, about 15 minutes more.
12
Cool in pan on wire rack for 10 minutes; remove muffins from pan to wire rack and cool completely.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
