There are so many benefits to increasing the fiber in your diet. Foods high in fiber help to soak up LDL cholesterol in the bloodstream, thus reducing the risk of arterial deposits and possible myocardial infarction. Studies show that fiber also helps to slow the absorption of sugar in the gut, which helps to stabilize blood-glucose levels, which is good for diabetics, those who suffer from insulin resistance and obesity. These muffins are a fairly painless way to add fiber to your diet--at least for non-diabetics. Probably too much sugar for a diabetic--sorry.

These muffins are a great way to use up leftover molasses. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat bran.

These muffins are a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some extra milk next time.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the walnuts from this recipe. The muffins were still delicious!

I love the flavor of these muffins, but they're a bit too sweet for me. Next time, I'll try using less sugar.

These muffins were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter texture.
