This muffin is a great grab and go for a rushed morning or as a quick snack. The difference with this bran muffin is the lightness and texture of it. I find that some bran muffins are heavy and sometimes a bit dry - this is neither of those things. The addition of the sour cream, gives this a beautiful texture that will have you thinking differently of the common bran muffin. Feel free to add in raisons or dried cranberries instead of the blueberries - it's really a nice base to add in whatever you have on hand.
