Buttermilk Bran Muffins

January 12, 2019

These muffins are an updated version of the classic bran muffin made popular in the 80’s for controlling cholesterol. We added a bit of sorghum and flour, making them almost luxurious, but with enough bran to pack a fiber punch. If you don’t have buttermilk, substitute yogurt or sour cream.
