Preparation

Chef’s notes

Muffins are best straight from the oven but remain moist for three days at room temperature, longer if frozen.
Consider using oats pulsed in a food processor instead of bran for a different texture.
Experiment with fruits like banana-coconut, mango-fresh cranberry, or blueberry-raspberry.
