1 large egg

pinch each of ground cinnamon and/or grated nutmeg
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda

Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/Gas 5.

Put the skimmed milk and wheat bran in a bowl, stir well and set aside for 10 minutes.

Beat the sugar and egg until well combined and then beat in the bran mixture.

Sift in the flour, spices, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda. Fold in gently, but thoroughly, with a metal spoon in a figure-of-eight motion. Stir in the berries to distribute them evenly throughout the mixture.

Divide between 6 paper cases in a muffin tin.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the muffins are well risen and firm to the touch.

Cool on a wire rack, then store in an airtight tin or a sealed container in the refrigerator.
