I used a 1/2 cup brown sugar and changed the bran ratio to 1/2 cup bran to 1 1/2 cup flour. I also added spices (all spice). I also used 2 whole eggs instead of egg whites. Maybe a little less healthy, but I felt that the bran/flour ratio made the muffins a little too dense.

These didn't have a lot of flavor in them but I didn't expect any so I was quite pleased.As a low-fat snack these are quite good.The only problem for me was that they were stuck to the papers and it was inpossible to get them off.

These were great! I added some cinnamon and vanilla because I love the way they smell when baking, but they also help bring out the natural sweetness of the bran and apple (which I chopped instead of grated). I also sub.ed 1/2 cup of oats for 1/2 cup of the flour just for kicks. ;) Even my younger sister who turns up her nose to anything healthy loved them!

Made these yesterday, they're ok for a low-fat low-cal snack but not nice enough to scoff the lot in one sitting - which is a good thing I suppose! I added 2 tbsp splenda to the mix in response to previous reviews that said these muffins weren't very sweet, however I found this made them way too sweet so will leave that out next time.

Very good! I used Pineapple and raisins instead of apples. They are delicious! YOu may want to add a bit of sugar or Splenda.

Great low fat muffins. I made the following changes. I added vanilla and cinnamon. I chopped the apples instead of grating them. I did not have buttermilk so I added a tablespoon of vinegar to 1 cup milk. It is true as other reviewers wrote the muffins are not very sweet, but I felt that they were sweet enough for a breakfast muffin. Thanks for sharing.

First time I dared to try bran muffins (let alone actually make them myself) and these are great! Moist and tasty - a nice change from the overly sweet, dry, non-bran quick mix kind you buy in a bag at the store. I'll happily make these again! (And other people liked them too.)

This recipe gets 5* from me. Low fat and good, two things that are hard to combine. We like these muffins a lot, and they are only 2pts if you are following Weight Watchers.

good, healthy muffins. although they are a little dry. i chose to add 1tsp of cinnamon and had to add an extra 1/8 of milk because the mixture was very biscuit-like. would be good with maybe some honey on top or coconut in the recipe. thanks!

I found these muffins surprisingly tasty considering the lack of fat (and relative lack of sugar). I added some raisins and cinnamon to mine, and that seemed to help give thema lightly spicy flavour. The bran makes them very fibrous, and they are much denser than regular muffins, but if you are on a diet these are great! ps, I wish i could try substituting apple sauce and dried buttermilk, but i'm from the UK and you can't buy those things over here! :-(

These were very bland. Not much flavor. I did not add apples just applesauce. I am sorry these were just not for us. Maybe if you add a little sugar. Thanks anyway!

These were pretty good, but mine came out a little dry. I used whole wheat flour, 1 1/2 tsp of baking soda, 1 tsp of vanilla, 1 c. of diced apple, and 1/2 c. of all natural applesauce. I also added 1 tsp of cinnamon and 1/3 c. of raisins. The apple taste did get lost, but the raisins were a nice addition. These muffins are GREAT for the added fiber.

Incredibly heavy and satisfying muffins, but the apple gets lost along the way. Here's my improvements: I add 1/3 cup flax seeds, 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1 cup diced apple, and substitute 3/4 cup applesauce for grated apple. A family favorite!

"Low fat" and "bran" don't have to mean flavorless, which these were, even though I tried adding more cinnamon as reviewers suggested. I recommend making the "Apple Strudel Muffins" instead, but a) replacing half the flour with oat bran, b) replacing the butter with applesauce, c) cutting the sugar in half, and d) adding a teaspoon of cinnamon. Voila! Low fat apple bran muffins that taste good, unlike these.

I add a fair bit of cinnamon when I make these and also cut the apple up into small pieces instead, the grated apple seems to get 'lost' in the mixture. I make these every week and they always turn out well. My mother even asked for the recipe and makes them herself now :)

I don't know what I did wrong but these didn't rise at all for me. I also found them a little bland even though I added cinnamon and nutmeg. Next time, I would definately add raisins too.

Made these several times now and found myself making a few changes. Added 1 tsp vanilla (I used the powder), a pinch of salt, 1 tsp. cinnamon, the other half of the apple, chopped (I used a Granny Smith so it wouldn't disappear into the apple when baked), a 1/2 cup dried cherry, cranberry, blueberry mix I bought at Sam's Club...and I had always used the water/dry buttermilk powder combination for the 1 cup liquid buttermilk until I read the review by RTR.MAR to use 1 cup apple juice with 4 tblsps dried buttermilk powder...very nice addition. Thanks much for listing this recipe Jenny!!
