Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fiber One cereal (original)
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts or dried fruits (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Fiber One cereal and buttermilk. Stir well and let it sit for 5-10 minutes to soften.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Then add the applesauce and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
Add the egg mixture to the soaked cereal and stir to combine.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and brown sugar.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
If using optional add-ins like chopped nuts or dried fruits, gently fold them into the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. They also freeze well for longer storage.
