ingredients

1 1/2 cup 100% bran cereal
1 1/2 cup applesauce
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/4 cup margarine, melted
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F; grease muffin pans.

In a large bowl, mix bran, applesauce, egg, margarine and brown sugar; let stand for 5 minutes. In a separate bowl, blend flour, baking powder and cinnamon; stir in bran mixture just until blended, batter will be lumpy. Stir in raisins. Spoon batter into muffin cups and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from pans; cool slightly. To prepare glaze, blend powdered sugar and applesauce until smooth; drizzle over muffins.

  1. nussegg REVIEW:

    Excellent!

  2. april7 REVIEW:

    I bring these to the office and they go fast!

  3. Bethers REVIEW:

    Excellent & easy! but, I changed a few things on this one "just to see" if it would work and for health reasons. I used raisin bran cereal, I also used organic unsweetened applesauce, I used butter, 1/2 Organic coconut sugar, u can use gluten free flours, i used a bit of tangerine zest and 1 1/2 tsp of cinnamon and no glaze.....Outcome? EXCELLENT!!! will def make more and always change it up, its fun that way!!!

  4. Guest REVIEW:

    Super easy and quick, I make without the glaze and substitute whatever I have on hand (cranberries, blueberries, etc.) for raisins. Even my picky toddler eats them!

  5. Carole REVIEW:

    Delicious and moist! Great way to eat bran. I replaced raisin by blueberries. Kids and husband loved them. I will make them often!

  6. jpmalonesr REVIEW:

    I make these for my wife. She eats them for the fiber, enjoys them for the taste. One change, however, I make them with a full cup of blueberries, frozen or fresh. They are also great with cranberries, also a full cup. I must have made these 20 or more time to date and I don't think there is an end unless my wife gets tired of them.

  7. Guest REVIEW:

    Excellent! Super-easy, very moist. No need for the glaze--I made it without and they are fantastic!

  8. Mammer REVIEW:

    This is an extremely moist and delicious muffin recipe. In fact, one could do away with the glaze and it still tastes yummy! This is a keeper.

  9. Bran REVIEW:

    I'm looking for a recipe that is lighter (texture) than this one. The taste is great. Reminds me of McDonald's apple bran muffins.
