Raspberry Bran Muffins

Servings: 4

1 1/4 cups flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
4 cups bran flakes cereal
1/4 cup raspberry jam

Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the muffin tins with paper muffin cups.

Combine the first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl. Whisk the buttermilk, oil and egg in a large bowl to blend. Add the dry ingredients and cereal and stir until just blended. Spoon 1/4 cup batter into each muffin cup. Using a small spoon, make a well in the center of each and fill with 1 teaspoon of jam. Spoon the remaining batter over. Bake until wooden pick inserted into centers comes out clean, about 25 minutes.

Turn muffins out onto racks. Cool slightly.
