Instructions: Pour boiling water over the bran flakes; set aside. Cream together sugar, eggs, shortening and salt. Add buttermilk and baking soda. Add and fold in flour, the 2 cups bran cereal and the bran/water mixture. Store this batter in the refrigerator until ready to use. Bake in greased muffin cups or tins, filling each 2/3 full. Bake in 400-degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until done.
