Very good bran muffins, I used homemade applesauce which was a little chunky so there are bits of apple adding to the texture of the muffins, quite nice! We will enjoy these for breakfasts in the next days, thanks for posting I will make them again.

I have not made these muffins yet but I am really excited. Being a diabetic I feel like I have given up so many things. The nutrition information is within guidelines. I want to add shredded carrots! This is going to be such fun to eat something healthy and yet a "splurge".

These look soooo good! Do anyone have the nutritional facts table for these? Wondering how many carbrohydrates and fiber are in each one.

There was a bit of a baking powder aftertaste to it. Next time I will use less and more applesauce. But overall a nice snack with very few carbs compared to other bran muffins
