BETTER BRAN MUFFINS (ATK)



Better Bran Muffins (Atk) image

I tried this recipe from America Test Kitchen and these were amazing. The test kitcen perferes Kellog's All-Bran Original Cereal in this recipe. Dried cranberries or cherries may be substituted for raisins. Low fat or non fat yogurt may be substituted for whole milk yogurt though the muffins won't be quite as flavorful.
