    I thought these muffins were great.
    I got 10 good size muffins out of the recipe.
    My suggestion would be taking them out of the oven right away to keep them moist. Bran has the tendency to dry out if baked too long. Yummy1

    These were really good. I have tried them with blueberries and raspberries. I never have apple sauce on hand but I use low fat french vanilla yogurt instead and they were great. Everyone loves them in my house. I also make 12 muffins instead of 8. - 3/17/10

    SO good.
    I substituted 1/3 cup Splenda brown sugar blend for the brown sugar; added 1/4 c. ground flax; used mixed frozen berries and a small banana instead of just the blueberries and these turned out great. I also made 12 muffins instead of 8 which (which my changes) makes these 100 kcal/each. :)

    Very Good
    These muffins were very tasty. I made 20 muffins (used medium liners) from 1 batch so they were about 76 calories per muffin. - 8/11/11
