A delicious, beautiful way to greet the morning! These one-bowl Bran Muffins are moist, tender and loaded with fabulous flavor. They rise high in the oven and honey-butter glaze seals the deal!
It took a long time... actually years, to find the perfect bran muffin recipe but once I discovered it, there was no looking back. The original recipe is fantastic but there are now SIX fabulous variations, definitely something to please everyone.
The recipe includes lots of bran and whole wheat flour so you can feel good about enjoying them any time of the day. The simple honey-butter glaze (or maple-butter glaze) is the delicious crowning glory!
I love that, in addition to being delicious, all of these one-bowl bran muffins come together quickly with just a bowl and a spoon or spatula. Want to see just how easy it is? My daughter-in-law, Lindsay put together a video to demonstrate:
See what I mean? Super simple!
These bran muffin recipes are also great if you're gluten-free or baking for someone who needs to be gluten-free.. Just sub GF cup-to-cup all-purpose flour and oat bran for the wheat bran and you're good to go!
This One-Bowl, Honey-Glazed Bran Muffin recipe was the original, the one that got me on the bran-muffin-wagon. The first time I tried it, I knew we had a winner. The muffins were moist, delicious and super easy to put together and they rolled out of the oven with rounded, bakery-style, tops!
Another variation, these fabulous one-bowl, no-mixer Blueberry Bran Muffins are high-fiber, super moist, studded with juicy blueberries and lower in refined sugar than most muffins!
Think bran muffins are dry and boring? Think again! These Honey-Glazed Almond Cherry Bran Muffins are moist, flavorful and decently healthy!
These delicious Honey-Glazed Apple Bran Muffins are moist, tender, studded with sweet chunks of apple and laced with cinnamon. They rise up with high-domed tops and come together quickly with one bowl and no mixer!
These high-domed Pineapple Coconut Bran Muffins are not your ordinary bran muffin. They're bursting with fabulous flavor and the sweet honey-butter glaze keeps them nice and moist!
And last, but definitely not least, these tropic-inspired Pineapple Coconut Bran Muffins are not your ordinary bran muffin. They're bursting with fabulous flavor and the sweet honey-butter glaze keeps them nice and moist!
Thought for the day:
But because of his great love for us,
God, who is rich in mercy,
made us alive with Christ
even when we were dead in transgressions
—it is by grace you have been saved.
Ephesians 2:4-5

Susie says
I can’t find wheat bran. Is there another name for it?
Chris Scheuer says
Hi Susie, I don't think there's another name for it but different grocery stores carry it in different places. Sometimes it's in the flour section, sometimes in the breakfast cereal section and sometimes you'll find a section with lots of Bob's Red Mill products and you'll find it there.
