This is my own adaptation of a recipe I found on the back of the oat bran box. These are also good with cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top before baking, and are especially yummy warmed up in the microwave about 10-15 seconds , with a little margarine!

Good, simple recipe. I made mini muffins with walnuts. I used one less Tbsp of oil and added 2 very ripe bananas to the mix. I also sprinkled with raw sugar and oats as another person suggested...and it gave it a nice little punch. Yummy and moist.Reply

I love this recipe. I was going to make the one on the back of the box, but yours looked so much tastier. The only change I made was instead of vanilla, I used 1 Tbsp. Molasses. I like the depth it gives to bran muffins. If you've never tried oat bran, get your feet wet with this recipe...it's yummy. Thank you for posting!Reply

These are excellent, moist and flavorful. Perfect made in mini-muffin tins for small children! I ran out of oat bran and substituted crushed oat cereal for half of the bran, and that turned out just as well. These freeze nicely, too. Thanks for the great kid-friendly recipe.Reply

These are really good! I replaced the oil with light sour cream and they were still moist and not crumbly at all. I topped with raw sugar and rolled oats before baking for a light crunch.Reply -
