Bran Muffins

1 1/2 cup Unbleached Flour
1 cup Bran
1 tsp. Orange Rind; Grated
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1/4 tsp. Salt

1 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Molasses; Light
1/4 cup Vegetable Oil

Combine all of the dry ingredients, then mix all of the wet ingredients
together. Stir the wet and dry ingredients together and spoon into a
well greased muffin pan. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 25 minutes.
Let the muffins cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan.

NOTE:
This is one of the few bran muffin recipes that I have found that
doesn't call for bran cereal. You can experiment with this recipe by
adding grated carrots, mashed bananas, raisins, chopped prunes, sesame
seeds, nuts or chopped apple as you desire.

Fresh Ginger Muffins

2 oz Ginger root, whole/unpeeled
3/4 cup Sugar + 3 Tbs. sugar
2 Tbs. Lemon zest
8 Tbs. Butter, room temperature
2 eggs
1 cup Buttermilk
2 cup Flour
1/2 tsp. Salt
3/4 tsp. Baking soda
Zest from two lemons, with some white pith

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease the muffin tins.
Cut the unpeeled ginger into large chunks. If you have a food
processor, process the ginger until it is in tiny pieces, or hand chop
into fine pieces. (You should have 1/4 cup. It is better to have too
much ginger, than too little) Put the ginger and 1/4 cup sugar in a
small skillet or pan and cook the mixture over medium heat until the
sugar has melted and the mixture is hot. Don't walk away from the pan,
this cooking takes only a couple minutes. Remove from the stove and
let the ginger mixture cool.
Put the lemon zest and 3 T sugar in the food processor and process
until the peel is in small bits; or chop by hand and then add sugar.
Add the lemon mixture to the ginger mixture. Stir and set aside.
Put the butter in a mixing bowl and beat a second or two, add the
Remaining 1/2 cup sugar, and beat until smooth. Add the eggs and beat
well. Add the buttermilk and mix until blended. Add the flour, salt,
and baking soda. Beat until smooth. Add the ginger lemon mixture and
mix well.
Spoon the batter into the muffin tins so that each cup is 3/4 full.
Bake 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.
