Spent Grain (or Bran) Muffins
Instructions
1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 large egg
1 cup spent grain or bran
1/2 cup sugar or 1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup blueberries or raisins (optional)
1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, best with raisins)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix ingredients until smooth but do not overmix. Put in greased muffin pan.
If using spent grain (which we get from a local microbrewery), put it in the food processor and chop it up a bit to make the muffins less noticeably fibrous.
Cinnamon and raisins go well together.
Bake for 25-30 minutes.
If using frozen blueberries, add 3-5 minutes to the baking time.
Makes 1 dozen muffins.
