lost my mom's recipe for honey bran muffins with dates - hunted & found this one which I believe is almost identical - made them as listed - but I will not put the cinnamon in next time & I like a bit sweeter muffin so may increase the honey a bit but the texture, and how nice they turned out was just as I remembered - and love them with dates. Will make these again with just a couple tweeks! -
These sure beat the boxed mixes. Easy to do with a lot more flavour. I like the raisins in it. May add some nuts next time just for a change. -
I've made these many times in the past, I usually double the recipe and make in jumbo muffin tins. This is a wonderful recipe for bran muffins, they really rise nice and high! thanks for posting...Kittencal:)

<p>My favorite thing to do is to spend time with family and friends, especially my two grandsons. Cooking, collecting recipe books and tried and true recipes from family and friends, and all the wonderful cooks here at food.com, is what I enjoy too.</p>
<p>My favorite sayings are: Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, and Today is a gift; that is why it is called the 'present'. <img title=Smile src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif border=0 alt=Smile /> and Remember yesterday, dream about tomorrow, but live for today. <img title=Smile src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif border=0 alt=Smile /> </p>
<p>My favorite poem is: <br /><span>Common Things <br /></span>The things I prize of greatest worth, <br />Are just the common things of earth; <br />the rain, the sun, the grass, the trees; <br />The flowers, the birds, the glorious breeze; <br />Clouds that pass, and stars that shine, <br />Mountains, valleys, all are mine; <br />Rivers broad, and open sea <br />Are riches none can take from me. <br />Our God is here on every hand, <br />Upon the sea, upon the land! <br />And day by day my thanks I give <br />That with these common things I live. <br />....Praying Hands</p>
<p>My pet peeve is people who spit gum on the sidewalk even if there is a trash bin a few feet away!! I have stepped in 'fresh' gum a couple of times!! </p>
