Perfect muffin. Dense but crunchy on top and moist inside life a muffin should be. Added a splash of molasses, vanilla extract, and a sprinkle each of cinnamon and nutmeg.

good. I wouldn't say anything terribly special for a bran muffin, but worth making again. i replaced the oil with applesauce, came out just fine.

These muffins have a nice flavour...I added a little cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla. I also used applesauce instead of oil, and insead of 2 cups of Bran Flakes, used 1 cup of Flakes and 1 cup of All Bran Buds for a little boost of psyllium fibre. Finally I added chocolate chips (for hubby and kids). My only complaint is that they're a little dense, but perhaps that's because of one of the changes I made. All in all, very good!

Easy, quick, uncomplicated. I added raisins too and these are basic with great variations based on other reviews

I used whole wheat white flour and cut the baking powder back to a teaspoon and added a teaspoon of baking soda. For an extra fiber boost, I added a half cup of organic raisins that I'd soaked in unsweetened hot chai before I added it to the muffin batter. (If you do this, make sure you really drain your raisins well and maybe even blot them dry if you have to. Too much liquid from soaking might ruin your muffins.) These muffins came out moist, though a little bland. Next time, I might add some cinnamon and nutmeg and a teaspoon of vanilla.

1. Great muffins. They baked perfectly and tasted like a bran muffin should. However, I prefer bran muffins with banana or apple chunks. 2. I made them with 2 bananas and no oil and they were rubbery. 3. Now I made them with 1/2 oil, 1/2 applesauce and it was great. 4. original recipe is okay. maybe sweeten with honey next time? 5. I have finally achieved the taste I was seeking! Follow the recipe as written, and add 1 banana!!

I used 1/2 white whole wheat flour and 1/2 all-purpose flour and subbed unsweetened applesauce for the oil. A delicious muffin that can have lots of variations by adding apples, raisins, craisins, nuts, chocolate chips, or a host of other add-ins.

These are very good! They sort of remind me of a cornbread taste. My kids LOVE these too!

I didn't used flour at all, I put 3 cups of cereal All Bran, with 1/2 cup of non fat milk and 1/2 of water to make them low calories, I added chpped prunes. I put only 2 tablespoons of sugar and for my tasted It was not enough. They didn't rise a lot, but the flavor was good.
