 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    7 1/2  oz            Raisin bran -- [1/2 box, by weight]
    1 1/2  cups          sugar
    2 1/2  cups          flour
    2 1/2  teaspoons     baking soda
    1      teaspoon      salt
    2      cups          buttermilk
      1/2  cup           butter -- melted
    2                    eggs
 
 Stir together the dry ingredients to mix well. Add buttermilk, mixing just
 to blend and let stand for 20 minutes to soften the cereal. 
 
 Add melted butter and beaten eggs, but don't overmix.
 
 Bake 15-18 minutes at 375 degrees.

 NOTES : If doubled, this uses one 15.5 oz. box of raisin bran, but I
 prefer to half it by weight so the mix fits in a 1.5 quart tupperware
 container for storage.  We called them "meadow muffins" as kids because of
 their appearance. (:
