For a nuttier flavor, try using toasted wheat germ in place of some of the wheat bran. Don't overmix the batter; a few lumps are okay. This will ensure a tender muffin. If using frozen cranberries, do not thaw them before adding them to the batter.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
02
StepIn a large bowl, combine the wheat bran and dark brown sugar.
03
StepPour milk into a microwave-safe glass measuring cup. Microwave until almost boiling, about 1 minute. Pour hot milk over bran mixture. Beat with an electric mixer until combined. Let stand until milk is mostly absorbed, about 5 minutes.
04
StepIn a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
05
StepAdd the oil, eggs, molasses, and orange zest to the bran mixture. Beat until well combined. Gently mix in the dry ingredients until just moistened.
06
StepFold in the fresh cranberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups.
07
StepBake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
