Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray 16 muffin cups with non-stick spray for average size muffins OR grease 12 muffin cups (standard size) for large muffins. (Or see tip  above for making a small loaf of bread in addition to 12 muffins.)

Step 2

Whisk together oil, sugar and eggs in a large bowl until well blended. Add molasses, buttermilk and vanilla. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Sprinkle bran, flours, baking powder baking soda and salt over the top. Stir just until all of the flour mixture is incorporated (do not overmix). Add raisins and stir to combine.

Step 4

Spoon batter into prepared muffin tins, filling almost to the top. Bake for 12-15 minutes until firm to touch and a tester comes out clean.

Step 5

Allow to sit in muffin tin for 5 minutes, then remove to a cool rack.

Step 6

Combine melted butter and honey in a small bowl. Stir well to combine. Brush mixture over the top surface of warm muffins.
