The first time I had these I was 9 and staying at someone's house. When the lady said she was making Bran Muffins for breakfast I was pretty sure I was going to have a miserable meal. Boy was I wrong!! These are fantastic! I usually cut back on the sugar some as they are a bit on the sweet side if made according to the recipe. The batter keeps very well in the refrigerator, for a week or so, so you can bake fresh each morning as many muffins as you need. If you are watching your fat intake, try my Low Fat (But Tasty!)

Ingredients:
2 cups wheat bran (not bran cereal*)
1 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup oil
2 cups buttermilk
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons molasses
Directions:
1. Mix first 5 ingredients together in a large bowl. Stir in remaining ingredients. If you wish, you can also add chopped apples, raisins or other dried fruit at this point.
2. Fill greased muffin cups 2/3 full with batter. Bake at 350°F for 16-18 minutes or until they test done with a toothpick.
3. Best served warm with or without butter.
4. *Wheat bran looks like sawdust and is usually sold in the health food section or at a bulk food store.
