QUICK OAT BRAN AND BANANA MUFFINS
A delicious way to add healthy oat bran to your diet. I like the chopped bananas in these, rather than the usual mashed, as I like running across the small bits of banana. This is a recipe from Bon Appetit that I have changed somewhat to suit my taste.

EASY BRAN MUFFINS
Peggy Reed of Vergennes, Vermont says her granddaughter Kelsey has always loved cooking. At age 4, Kelsey entered Bran Muffins in a baking contest. "The recipe Kelsey used is great for kids. The ingredients are measured in whole amounts," Peggy explains. "It makes a lot of batter, but it can be stored in the refrigerator so the muffins can be made in batches." By the way, Peggy also entered muffins in the contest, competing against Kelsey. Kelsey won the blue ribbon and Grandma came in second place!
