Ingredients

Method

Grease muffin cups or line with paper liners; set aside.

In bowl, stir together buttermilk, All-Bran and natural bran; let stand for 10 minutes. In separate bowl, combine molasses, oil, egg and vanilla; stir into bran mixture.

In large bowl, whisk all-purpose and whole wheat flours, brown sugar, flaxseeds, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg and salt. Pour bran mixture over top. Sprinkle with cranberries; stir just until moistened. Scoop by scant 1/2 cupfuls (125 mL) into prepared cups. Bake in centre of 375°F (190°C) oven until tops are firm to the touch, 25 minutes. Let cool in pan on rack for 2 minutes. Remove from pan; let cool. (Make-ahead: Wrap separately in plastic wrap and freeze in airtight container for up to 2 weeks.)
