Raisin Oatmeal Bran Muffins

People talking
Though there are many good raisin bran muffins on the site, there are none quite like these. The addition of oatmeal helps keep these low-fat muffins moist and tender. The original recipe comes from one of my mom's many muffin cookbooks, wish I remembered which one. I've played with it a bit but this is close.

Woah. These are some DENSE muffins. I don't think I'll make these often, as they're a bit on the heavy, hard to chew side. I like that sort of muffin, but my husband doesn't, so... I feel SO good eating these, though, knowing they're so healthy for me. Will make again.
-
I made these muffins with regular raisins and liked them a lot. Mine didnt look as nice as the picture but were really good.
-
We enjoyed these 'healthier' muffins. Lost my recipe for the Raisin Bran muffins but these were close to them.
-
Since my grandaughter doesn't like raisins or currants, I omitted them from half the muffins - otherwise I followed the recipe verbatim. For "healthy" muffins, these are quite good. Thanx Toni! — Mar 15, 2005 -
