Betty Crocker was close......but original recipe was from 1930's off the back of a tin can of shreded wheat.Instead of the 2nd cereal you call Bran Flakes it is 4 large shrededwheat bisquits and you are suposed to pour the boiling water over the raisins and then the bran buds. You need the raisin flavor through out the muffin! Also this should be all doubled except the amount of raisins which remains 2 cups. and it should be refrigerated up to 1 month or even put in the freezer! I tried yours, mine are better. I kept grandmas shredded wheat can for years. LOL try this again and see if you like them even more. Rita (grandma was from Newkirk Iowa and raised 9 children with these muffins. And yes King Arthur Flour is much better. Makes them a little lighter. I also put the 5 teaspoons of baking soda in with the buttermilk at the last minuet.
