1 c. raw bran in 1 c. boiling water
2 1/2 c. flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1/2 c. corn oil
1 c. brown sugar
1 c. buttermilk
1 1/2 c. bananas (ripe), mashed

Cream oil, sugar, and eggs. Combine dry ingredients. Mix all together. Add ripe bananas. Mix the night before and let set at least 8 hours. (Keep refrigerated.) Bake in the morning at 400 degrees for 20 to 30 minutes. Use only foil laminated baking cups to avoid sticking. Makes about 1 dozen or more, depending on size of muffin tins. Sprinkle sugar, cinnamon, and nuts on muffins before baking.
