Steps:
- (Krusteaz mixes are on the cake mix aisle, the 15 oz is approx, I do not have a box on hand and just guessed for the recipe).
- Soak the All Bran Cereal in the water for 5 minutes.
- Spray muffin tins with Pam.
- Add the baking powder and the muffin mix to the cereal and mix well.
- Batter will be thick.
- Drain the can of cranberries and add the berries to the mix.
- Drop into muffin tins.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 16-18 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
- (Use ONLY the FAT FREE Krusteaz mixes with this recipe- for some reason the regular mixes dont taste as well- they have the orange cranberry, Apple Cinnamon and Blueberry- the blueberry is just as good as the orange cranberry, I have not tried apple cinnam).
CRAN BRAN MUFFINS
I love how filling bran muffins are, but sometimes find they're lacking in flavor. That's not the case with these ones, made with fresh cranberries and orange zest. They're the perfect fall breakfast treat!

Tips:
- For a sweeter muffin, increase the amount of sugar to 1/2 cup.
- To make the muffins more tart, add 1/4 cup of lemon juice to the batter.
- If you don't have orange zest, you can use 1 teaspoon of orange extract.
- If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use 1 cup of frozen cranberries.
- Be sure to measure the flour correctly. Too much flour will make the muffins dry.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the muffins tough.
- Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full. If you fill them too full, the muffins will overflow.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
