Yogurt-Bran Muffins

2 cups bran cereal
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 cups vanilla yogurt
3 cups whole wheat flour
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup fresh raspberries or blueberries*

Heat oven to 400 degrees.  Fill 2 muffin pans with 24 muffin cups or grease cups.  Crush the bran cereal in a plastic bag.  In a bowl, stir together eggs, oil, and yogurt.  Add cereal, flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt.  Stir until moistened.  Gently stir in berries.  Fill each muffin cup about 3/4 full.  Bake 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. 

*I think these are great even without the berries.  They would also be good using some mashed banana in place of some of the yogurt.
