At high altitude of 7,000 ft, mine worked better at 375 degree F for 30 min. I also added some little carrot sticks. Wonderful! bd in Ruidoso

What a disappointment after all the rave reviews! I would describe the flavour as bland. Unfortunately I have some leftover batter I may try adding some coffee to add some flavour.

Pretty good. I made a few changes though. I used Raisin Bran for the cereal. I used regular skim milk, cinnamon, extra raisins and applesauce instead of the oil. They are very moist. I scaled the recipe down too. One thing the recipe doesnt mention is whether you are to grease the muffins pan or use liners. If you dont use liners, make sure to grease the pan. They do stick!

Just what I was looking for and MORE. I followed the recipe exactly and am very pleased with the result-- tender, moist, flavorful and crisp on the outside. PERFECT BRAN MUFFINS! I'll definitely hang onto this recipe, and experiment with putting banana and other fruit into them. Thanks for sharing!

Delicious...This was my first attempt with Bran Muffins. Bran sounds so "healthy". Well these may not be healthy, but they were great. I scaled the recipe down to 36 muffins. I made six this morning for Sunday breakfast. I plan to make the remainder throughout the next week or so. Probably won't keep the batter around for more than a two weeks. Anything longer than that, doesn't sound too appetizing. Anyway, one other modifications that were made: used Raisin Bran cereal, added about a teaspoon and a half of cinnamon, used half butter/half shortening combination and added a cinnamon, brown sugar and pecan pieces topping. I know I'll make these again. Great recipe.

I love this recipe. I was buying bran muffins and it was costing me a fortune. I tried this recipe and they are great! I did cut the recipe in half.I bake 12 at a time storing the rest of the batter in the refrigerator and making fresh muffins every three days until the batter is gone. I used Post Raisin Bran and added extra raisins.I also substitued the buttermilk with sour milk to save some money.My sour milk for this recipe was 1 1/2 TBS of lemon juice stirred into every 2cups of milk.The very first batch I cooked came out just ok-I really don't know why. I was going to throw out the rest of the batter but that would have been a waste so I baked another 12 from the same batter.They were GREAT!! I have used this recipe several times and it continues to please :)

This is really a great and easily adaptable recipe. I scaled it down, changed applesauce for shortening. I also do different add-ins for different batches. It's perfect for kids to bake too. Thanks for such a great recipe.

Another satisfied customer! These are GREAT. Breakfast was getting pretty boring around here, so this is something fresh. My husband was skeptical at first, but after eating them...was convinced. I did lower the oven temp a bit and reduce the backing time. Other than that, I left it the same.

Don't use muffin cups. Definitely a tasty bran muffin, but I prefer the healthier "Classic Bran" muffin recipe from this site.

OK, First let me say that I cut this recipe by 6 to get the desired 24 muffins. I also added 1 cup of raisins to the boiling water, and added 1 teaspoon of baking powder in addition to the baking soda. They were amazingly good! I thought my kids would turn up their noses...instead, they devoured them and asked for more! These are the most moist and best tasting bran muffins I've ever made. This recipe is a keeper!

This was my first time making bran muffins and they turned out great! I used Fiber One cereal and ran it all through the food processor before adding the water. I also added cinnamon and raisins. So good!

Have made this recipe for years (in smaller quantities) and it's the only bran muffin recipe that really tastes like a treat. I always add vanilla and use Bran Flakes for the smaller quantity of bran cereal and All Bran for the larger one. Sometimes throw a streusel topping on for fun. Simply delicious...people can't believe it's a bran muffin!

Just as awesome as mom used to make when I was a kid....But, next time i'll half it. I didn't have a bowl big enough to mix this in and ended up mixing in 5 smaller bowls and combining ingredients at the end.

Excellent. I added orange zest, and substituted orange juice for the water. Also, I substituted applesauce for the oil. Added dried cranberries. Yummy!!!

This recipe brings back some fond memories of my daughter when she was little. I always had this batter in the fridge and I popped six of these in the oven moments before she and her friends were due home from school. She arrived home everyday to the smell of these baking, and as soon as she changed her clothes she and her buddies each munched on a hot muffin with a tall glass of cold milk. To this day whenever we run into any of her friends from the old neighborhood, they remind me of the great smells and flavors from our house after school. Now I take this batter to work once a week and bake them in the kitchen mid day to share - there is never a crumb left.

I have been using this recipe for many years. Makes it so easy to have something healthy in the morning in a hurry. So much better for you than a donut or huge bakery muffing.
