Delicious Bran & Raisin Muffins
We have been trying new recipes every week this year and they’ve mostly been dinner ones. So this week I decided to try a breakfast recipe: Bran & Raisin Muffins. I know my kids love raisin bran, but I wasn’t sure about bran in a muffin. I decided to give it a shot and I’m happy I did. They are moist, delicious, and a great addition to our breakfast rotation. I actually made another batch and once they were cool, I individually wrapped them up and tossed them in the freezer. Now I can enjoy a Bran & Raisin muffin any time I want!
