1/2 C. Crisco
1 1/4 C. Sugar
2 C. All Bran (cereal)
1 C. Boiling Water
2 C. Bran Flakes (cereal)
2 Eggs, beaten
2 C. Buttermilk (2 c. milk, 2 T. Vinegar for 5-10 min.)
2 1/2 C. Flour
2 1/2 t. Baking Soda
1/2 t. Salt

This has 2 parts, Boil water and add All Bran, mix until dissolved. Add Bran Flakes and mix.

Cream Shortening and Sugar. Add Eggs and Buttermilk. Mix in Flour, Baking Soda and Salt. Combine this mixture with the cereal mixture.

Cook at 400 for 15-20 minutes. Store leftover muffins in air-tight container. You can also store the batter in the fridge and make more when you want. This will make about 2 muffin tins worth. I made large and small muffins so I'm not exactly sure how many big ones it would make.

These muffins are so good. My whole family loved them, and they were so easy to make! They were also so soft.
