Ingredients

1 cup all-bran cereal
2/3 cup skim milk
1/2 cup sifted all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
1 medium egg beaten
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare nine 1-inch muffin cups with vegetable pan-coating or line with paper baking cups.

Combine bran cereal and milk. Sift together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.

Combine beaten egg and vegetable oil; add to bran and milk; mix well. Add dry ingredients all at once and stir (do not beat) just enough to mix.

Measure 3 scant tablespoonfuls batter into each of the nine prepared muffin cups.

Bake 25 to 30 minutes. Cool 5 minutes, then turn out of pans.
