Recipe Instructions:

In a large bowl, combine the bran, all-purpose flour, soy flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Ensure they are well mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, evaporated milk, vegetable oil, and molasses until thoroughly combined.
Gradually stir the egg mixture into the bran mixture, ensuring it is fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix; just stir until moistened.
Gently fold in the chopped dates, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter into 18 paper-lined large muffin cups, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the muffins for 15 to 18 minutes, or until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, these muffins are ready to serve. Enjoy them warm with a spread of butter or your favorite jam.

Tips:

These muffins can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container for up to three days.
For a quick breakfast option, freeze the muffins individually and reheat them in the microwave for a few seconds before serving.
