Mix flour, brown sugar, nuts, baking pwdr, baking soda, and salt in a separate mining bowl. Add in bran and banana mix to flour mix, stirring just to moisten batter. Batter will be lumpy.
- Fill greased muffin c. 3/4 full. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 15 to 20 min or possibly till the muffins are hard to touch and a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cold on wire rack. Serve hot with Ginger Butter.
- Ginger Butter: Cream ingredients together thoroughly in a food processor or possibly a blender. Pack butter into a dish or possibly a crock. Chill till hard.
- Yield: 1 c.
- Tried and true notes: These muffins are excellent and very easy to make - they can be used for a variety of occasions - especially nice with a summer salad. Do try the Ginger Butter - it really is a special touch. I did not use a food processor for the Ginger Butter - just softened the butter and mixed with a fork (saves on cleanup). I hope you will enjoy these as much as my family has.
