Amazing Bran Muffins

These bran muffins go way back to when I was a kid.  My mom would always make them for my brothers and I.  And now that I have a family of my own, I make them for my own children and everyone loves them. They’re always a crowd pleaser and a great way to get in your daily required allotment of fiber!

You can use raisin bran cereal instead of bran flakes with this recipe to add variation in texture and the flavor.  Also, be aware that some cereal raisin bran’s have more sugar than others and could result in your recipe being a little sweeter.
