hearty and yummy bran muffins

1 1/4 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup All-Bran cereal
1 egg, beaten
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/4 milk
1/4 vegetable oil

Combine cereal and milk in a large bowl and let stand for 2 minutes. Combine dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Add egg and oil to cereal mixture and beat well. Add dry ingredients all at once, stirring only combined. Spoon into greased muffin cups and bake at 400 degrees for 15-17 minutes. Makes about 1 dozen. This batter may be refrigerated for up two weeks before baking.

** My Mom made these for me in CA and they were SO good. I love that it makes a small recipe, but can also be easily doubled. We added some cut up cherries and reconstituded dried cranberries. I think these would be delish with fresh blueberries. My favorite way to enjoy them has been just plain, fresh out of the oven with butter and jam.
