      I made these today made a few adjustments by adding an extra egg, one mashed banana, shredded pears and a diced apple with walnuts for topping.

        Oh wow, those sound like delicious additions to these muffins! I'm always switching it up. I've done pumpkin and berry but never apples and pears. I'm sure it was super yummy! Enjoy!

      I just got through making these. I changed the recipe a little. I used regular milk (2%) instead of almond milk and added rasins. My husband says they are very good and I agree.

      Since you talked about these before I have been looking forward to the recipe. I will be making these sometime very soon. We need some healthy stuff around here. Good thoughts and prayers still headed your way.

      Bran muffins are one of my favorite comfort foods. Lots of butter is a requirement! I used to bake them a lot as a kid, but I haven't in a while, so thanks for the reminder. I'm going to make a batch so I have an easy breakfast on hand for me and my son. 🙂

      Typically I'm not a healthy snack lover, but these do sound yummy! I'm sure my four year old would love it if I stocked our freezer with these for busy mornings! I'll make sure to give them a try!

      Good luck with the embryo transfer! I've had to be on bed rest after surgery and I know how hard that is. And boring! At least you have muffins to snack on though, right? 🙂

        Thanks Kiersten! Bed rest really was boring and started to get pretty depressing... especially with my mind having so much time to think about all the what-ifs. Luckily I've been able to get up and out of the house the last couple days but still taking it easy for the next couple weeks.
