What type of bran is used
for bran muffins?
Q: This may be a silly question....but I have yet
to find anyone that knows the answer. Bran or Honey Bran muffin
recipes call for either 'bran' or 'wheat bran' as an ingredient.
The only type of bran that I can find at any store is Oat Bran
or Oats. Is this what the recipe really wants? There does not
seem to be a bran or wheat bran ingredient at any of the normal
or health food stores. Thanks for any help you can give. Jacqueline
A: With recipes, the rule-of-thumb regarding bran
(when unspecified), is that it is almost always wheat bran. You
can find wheat bran on the cereal aisle, just look for 100% bran
flakes or buds cereal. It can be confusing sometimes...you were
probably looking sensibly on the aisle where the whole grains
and flours are kept!
