RAISIN BRAN MUFFINS THAT WORK
I have always been disappointed when I've baked homemade bran muffins, but not anymore. These are moist and flavourful. I think the trick with the moistness is combining the bran with the wet ingredients, as no other bran muffin recipe I've tried had this step. I often cut this recipe in half and bake just 6 in my toaster oven. These freeze well, too.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400F; prepare muffin pans by lining cups with paper muffin liners.
- In a large bowl, beat together eggs, milk, oil, molasses, sugar and vanilla.
- Stir in bran; let stand for 5 minutes.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda; add to egg mixture, stirring just until combined.
- Carefully stir in raisins, being careful not to overmix.
- Fresh blueberries, or unthawed frozen ones, can be substituted for raisins, by the way.
- Spoon into paper-lined muffin cups, filling right to the top.
- Bake in preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until muffins are firm to the touch; do not overbake or muffins will be dry and tough.
- As mentioned in the description, I like to cut this recipe in half (half of 3/4 cup brown sugar is 1/4 cup+ 2 tbsp) and bake the 6 in my toaster oven; after 20 minutes they are always done to perfection and I don't heat up my kitchen.
- Remove muffins from pan and cool on rack.

APPLESAUCE RAISIN BRAN MUFFINS
I checked and while I found many bran muffin recipes here, none were quite like this. I like this one not only because it is lower fat, but because it doesn't have as much added sugar, and it relies on the cereal more than the flour to make the batter. The muffins themselves are surprisingly moist and light in texture. I like the light sweetness of these and the crunchy muffin tops. (If you sprinkle a little extra cereal on top, they get an even better crunch, and improved appearance.) I found this recipe at www.mealsmatter.org. Watch these since the recipe stated they should bake in 20 minutes, but I found mine were done after about 15.
