Irresistible Oat Bran Muffins: Mouthwatering Recipe

These oat bran muffins are made with bran, not oatmeal. I have made these for about 5 years now and love them. They are great made with cinnamon or cranberry applesauce, as well as plain applesauce. My daughter loves them, and I hope you will enjoy them, too!
