Cranberry Blueberry Bran Muffins

One of M's favourite kind of muffins is cranberry blueberry bran. This kind of muffin is one of very few items that he will order from Tim Hortons. While delicious, it is VERY high-fat. I found a few low fat recipes online that copy the taste of these muffins, but in a healthier way. Here is one of the recipes (from SparkRecipes). Enjoy!
