You might want to double check the nutritional breakdown. I'm not sure if it adds up right.

Or maybe I didn't enter the individual ingredients right. Whatever, just skip the breakdown or put it in nutrition data. I think that's what I had done to begin with. Anyways they are really good for what they are (bran muffins) and don't have fat in the recipe. With all that fibre they just scoot right thru you like a clean sweep with a new broom!

My Mom and I were making so many batches of these at one time we were buying bulk black strap molassas in a large commerical pail, more for the convenience than the money saving.
