Pumpkin Oat Bran Bread or Muffins image

Not your typical muffin, but they pack in 5 grams of fiber per muffin and are low calorie/fat. Oh and they taste great too! For even more fiber add the wheat germ. I make double batches and freeze half of them for down the road. Scale recipe back to 12 if you only want to make 1 muffin tray of these.
