Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup cooking bran
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 2 cup buttermilk - this can be substituted with soured milk, which is two cups of regular milk and 4 tsp of white vinegar
  • 4 tsp baking soda - add to buttermilk before mixing
  • 1 1/2 cup bran flakes
  • 1 cup raisins - soak in hot water for about 10 minutes
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs - beaten
  • 1/4 cup cooking molasses

Instructions

  • Put the cooking bran in a small bowl and pour the boiling water over it. Let it stand while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
  • Measure out the buttermilk and add the baking soda, stirring to mix. It will bubble a bit. Let this stand while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients to a large bowl. Stir thoroughly. Drain the raisins and add. Add the bran and buttermilk mixtures. Stir well until everything is well mixed-in.
