Ingredients

• 2 cups Raisin Bran cereal
• 1 cup Low-fat milk
• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the raisin bran cereal and low-fat milk. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes to soften the cereal.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 4

To the cereal and milk mixture, add the brown sugar, unsweetened applesauce, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.

Step 6

Evenly divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
