Frequently Asked Questions

Why are purchased bran muffins darker?

Q: Purchased Bran muffins are dark in color. Recipes for bran muffins do not have ingredients that make the muffin dark. What ingredient needs to be added? I prefer the dark color and taste of purchased muffins but would to bake my own. Any suggestions?

A: Purchased bran muffins that are darker in color may be because they contain dark molasses or dark brown sugar, or even a combination of both. Plus, the flour used is probably whole wheat flour instead of white, all-purpose flour. All of these ingredients would contribute to a darker muffin.
