loving this recipe with less oil because of the applesauce, have you tried oat bran in it?

I haven't tried to add oat bran here. I did make a few oat bran muffin recipes, some had blueberries added, some used bananas, and they all turned out great. I believe if you substitute 1/2 cup flour to bran, the muffins should be still tasty :)
