I love these muffins, but like it better by changing the 3 cups of white sugar to 1 1/2 cup brown sugar and 3/4 cup molasses?. I also add the rest of the 18.2 oz. box of all bran, about 1 cup. The muffins have a nuttier, richer flavor to me. I also agree that adding the buttermilk and eggs to the crisco makes it easier to get out the lumps.

This recipe is the ULTIMATE! I had another recipe that I thought could never ever compare until I tried this recipe! And I follow this awesome recipe to the ?T?. I use 2 cups of Bran Buds (it says you can use either All-Bran or Bran Buds) to the boiling water and when I do the dry ingredients I use the 4 cups of All-Bran as directed. <br/>When I make Ice Box Bran Muffins I always use the pans that make the large size muffins. Talk about a perfect 5 star muffin! Yummy yum! :~)

This is the best bran muffin recipe EVER! Every family reuion my aunt would make these muffins, and I waited for morning to come so I could eat them up. For my high school graduation, all I wanted was this recipe!!! You won't be disappointed. Make a batch and you will have enough to freeze for a quick breakfast or snack anytime. Or keep the bowl in your refrigerator and bake a few day day...you're going to LOVE these delicious mufins. My kids beg for more. We especially like them with homemade strawberry rhubarb jam for a tastey summer treat.
