Yum, thanks for the recipe. I was afraid they’d turn out dry from all the oat bran but they are moist and delicious. I was out of raisins and nuts so i did throw in a handful of chocolate chips. But with all the healthy stuff packed in, I still feel great eating them!

@ Alahna – Mmm yes, warm with fresh preserves is the best!

There’s nothing like fresh muffins with preserves for morning breakfast and fresh fruit…-YUMMY-! When I make muffins I overfill my muffin tray for that picturesque muffin top overflow. :)

@ Ero San – Yes, cranberries! I always forget those ones, much to my dismay. So yummy. =)

@ Ian Tearle – Yeah, it’s a pretty popular flavor combination. =)

@ shauna – Aw, that’s so awesome to hear! Thanks lady, it means so much to me! Hope I can keep delivering.

@ Ero San – I’m a raisin lover myself, but I know they’re not for everyone. I bet dried cherries would work well in there, or dried blueberries. It’s definitely customizable. And thanks for the photo praise. But I think I can do better!

@ Julie – Baking is such a great way to help transition to veganism – I did tons of it too, when I first made the switch. Have you stocked up on Earthbalance yet? It will make a frosting just like butter. They also make an excellent vegan cream cheese – the brand is Tofutti and Trader Joe’s carries it. It takes a little getting used to the dairy analogues, but other than cheese they’re actually really incredible. I think dairy can be much easier to replace than meat, as far as really tasting like ‘the real thing’ (other than cheese of course – there’s no real substitute that cuts it). Anyway, luck Lady!

I’ve been baking a lot lately, too. I made vegan banana nut muffins the other morning and I made a vegan carrot cake but couldn’t get the frosting right so I broke down and made a regular icing from cream cheese, confectioners sugar and butter. Darn. Still struggling with dairy products but no flesh since the fateful day (I’m sure you remember the weepy, confessional text messages! I STILL haven’t told my husband, I’m afraid he’ll be so disappointed in me)

What are you talking about!? Those muffins look great! I happen to think homemade always looks tastier (and most certainly, it is) ^_^

I would leave the raisins out tho… I’m not a big fan of raisins, unless it is by the handful or covered in chocolate.
