For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of melted butter. Feel free to experiment with other nuts and spices, such as pecans, almonds, cardamom, or cloves. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to a liquid measuring cup, then filling with milk to the 1-cup line. Let stand for 5 minutes before using. These muffins freeze well. Allow them to cool completely, then wrap individually or in small batches and store in the freezer for up to 2 months. Consider adding raisins or other dried fruits for added texture and sweetness.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
10 mins
In a large bowl, carefully combine the boiling water and baking soda. The mixture will fizz. Let cool slightly. (Approximately 10 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
In the same bowl, gently stir in the flour, buttermilk, bran cereal, bran flakes, walnuts, sugar, oil, melted butter, beaten eggs, cinnamon, salt, ginger, and nutmeg until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (Approximately 5 minutes)
03
Step
8 hrs
Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate the muffin batter for a minimum of 8 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the flavors to meld and the bran to soften. (8 hours or overnight)
04
Step
10 mins
When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Prepare your muffin tin by greasing 60 muffin cups or lining them with paper liners. (Approximately 10 minutes)
05
Step
10 mins
Carefully pour the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 1/2 full. (Approximately 10 minutes)
06
Step
20 mins
Bake in the preheated oven until the tops of the muffins spring back lightly when gently pressed, about 20 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean. (Approximately 20 minutes)
07
StepLet the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
