Moist Molasses Bran Muffins

I made these muffins a while ago with the intent to post about them, but life got in the way and I forgot until now. In my boredom one Saturday morning, while Jeremy was at work, I decided to make some muffins. I'm a big fan of muffins, especially oat/bran/healthy kind and these were delicious! The recipe is from the Bob's Red Mill website. Since I'm not a huge fan of raisins, I subbed craisins for them and the muffins turned out great! They are quick, easy, tasty and healthy.
