The best bran muffins .... EVER

Lynne Robinson, Hewitt, New Jersey

I don’t know about you, but I’ve never been a big fan of bran muffins. Visions of dry, mealy bites of food come to mind, don’t they? That was why we were pleasantly surprised when we tried out this recipe from America’s Test Kitchens (or Cook’s Illustrated). We happened to catch this cooking segment on Food Network a few weeks back and they made them look so good.

They are absolutely delicious: moist, chewy, full of tasty raisins (we like the golden ones best), and made with good-for-you ingredients. We’ve made them twice now and they last us all week for breakfast. One is enough to fill us up for the entire morning. They have staying power!

Why not give them a try? I’m sure you’ll agree they are the best bran muffins you’ve ever eaten.

Welcome, I'm Lynne. You know me better as a 'new' Jersey Girl. But now I've moved once again, this time to North Carolina. Here I write about my thoughts, good food, and of course, dogs.
