ORANGE-CRANBERRY BRAN MUFFINS



Orange-Cranberry Bran Muffins image

This is a recipe from the G.I. Diet book. They are loaded with fibre but taste really nice. Not a light cake like muffin. The cranberries give these muffins a nice little burst of tartness. I didn't have any fresh cranberries so I used dried.
