This Bran Muffin with molasses is the best bran muffin you will ever eat! A healthy bran muffin is a great start to your day, especially when it's chock-full of real and wholesome ingredients like butter, molasses, wheat bran, chia seeds, wheat germ and walnuts. Not only does it make a great breakfast, it also makes a great snack!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Fill muffin tins with paper muffin liners (these work the best in this recipe - I do not recommend making these muffins without using paper liners)
Add 1 teaspoon vinegar to milk and set aside
In a large bowl, cream butter with sugar, then stir in oil. Add molasses.
in a separate medium bowl, mix flours, bran, wheat germ, baking powder and chia seeds together. Add to butter mixture and mix well. You can use an electric mixer for this part.
Add baking soda to milk and stir. Add to mixture.
Stir in walnuts.
Fold in beaten eggs. Stir only until combined
Fill paper filled muffin liners to top.
Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until tester or toothpick comes out clean.
Cool for 5 mins then transfer to cooling rack. Cool for 5 more minutes and serve.
