MORNING MAPLE BRAN MUFFINS

INGREDIENTS

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Wood's Maple Sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups Kellogg's® All-Bran® Original cereal
1 1/4 cups fat-free milk (I've made with Lactaid Milk and Almond Milk - both have worked fine for me but you will have to adjust liquids with the almond milk and cook about 5-7 minutes longer)
1 egg
1/4 cup vegetable oil (I like to use butter)

DIRECTIONS

1. Stir together flour, maple sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine KELLOGG'S ALL-BRAN cereal and milk. Let stand about 2 minutes or until cereal softens. Add egg and oil. Beat well. Add flour mixture, stirring only until combined. Portion evenly into twelve 2 1/2-inch muffin pan cups coated with cooking spray. (I like sizable muffins - so I double the recipe and still make only 12 muffins in deep cupcake pans)

3. Bake at 400° F for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 10 minutes.

4. Drizzle with Wood's Maple Cream

Serve warm.
