Ingredients

• 2 cups Post S Bran Cereal
• 1 cup Boiling Water
• 1.5 cups All-Purpose Flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.5 cup Unsalted Butter
• 0.5 cup Honey
• 0.25 cup Brown Sugar
• 2 pieces Large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 1 cup Milk
• 0.5 cup Raisins or Dried Fruit (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the Post S Bran Cereal and boiling water. Stir to moisten the cereal and let it sit for 5-7 minutes until softened.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set this dry mixture aside.

Step 4

In the softened cereal mixture, add the melted butter, honey, and brown sugar. Mix until well combined.

Step 5

Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

Step 6

Gradually alternate adding the dry flour mixture and milk to the wet batter, starting and ending with the flour. Mix gently to combine. Do not overmix.

Step 7

If you’re adding raisins or dried fruit, fold them in at this point.

Step 8

Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
