In a medium bowl, whisk eggs till well-combined. Add sugar, honey, vanilla and whisk to combine. Whisk in butter and then yogurt. (You can spoon it into the same measuring cup you used to melt the butter.) Stir in All Bran cereal, and set aside while you prepare dry ingredients. (You want the cereal to soften as it absorbs the liquid. This can take 5-10 minutes.)
