Thanks for posting such a great recipe! This has to be the best bran muffins I have tasted without feeling like I'm chewing on a brick or eating a bunch of sugar. This recipe has great flavor and texture. We have made many batches and this has become a family favorite. Along with the raisins I like to add dried cranberries. Also, some batches I'll add chopped dried apricots, but I cut back to a little less than 3/4 cup of dried fruit. For a stronger banana flavor I freeze the bananas over night.
