Ingredients
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
Mix together flour, bran, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, beat together banana, sugar, egg, lemon peel, and vanilla. If the bananas are still frozen, unpeel them (keep some warm water around to occasionally heat up your little finger tips!) and microwave until thawed and just warm before crushing down and adding them, with any liquid they extracted, to the sugar. Some chunks are fine-- This just means little pocket of banana! Stir in the yogurt. Lightly mix the banana-yogurt mixture into flour until just combined. Stir in the raisins if you're using them. Scoop batter into prepared muffin cups.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of a muffin comes out clean. Let cool before serving (in theory).
