Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup whole wheat flour If you don't have whole wheat flour, use all-purpose flour here as well
  • ½ cup bran flakes
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ⅓ cups molasses
  • 1 egg
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ½ cup frozen blueberries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F, grease a muffin tin, or line it with paper cups.
  • Place the butter in a small saucepan over low heat to melt as you mix the dry ingredients. The butter only needs to be melted, and doesn't need to be super hot.
  • Mix the flour, bran, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the egg, and then add the milk, molasses, and melted butter. Stir well to evenly mix all the liquids.
  • Add the milk and molasses mixture to the dry ingredients, and stir until combined. The batter should not be over-mixed!
  • Spoon the muffin batter into the pre-greased or lined muffin tins, and immediately bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the tops are slightly golden brown.
  • Take the blueberry bran muffins from the oven, and cool them on a wire rack to prevent them from going soggy. Enjoy!
