Raisin Bran Breakfast Muffin

This is a recipe I found on a friend's Pinterest board a few days ago.  They are so good!

Raisin Bran Breakfast Muffins
Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups raisin bran cereal
• 1 cup milk, warmed (I forgot to warm mine...oops...still worked)
• 1 heaping cup whole wheat flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ground ginger
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
• 1/4 cup coconut oil (this makes the muffins!  it gives them a nice nutty flavor)
• 1/4 cup canola oil

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 400.
• Line muffin pan, or spray with non-stick spray
• Put cereal in a bowl with the milk and leave it for about 5 minutes, until cereal is soft.  Having milk warm helps with this.
• Combine flour, baking powder, salt and spices in a large bowl.  Stir in raisins.
• In smaller bowl beat egg, brown sugar and oils together.  Add to flour mixture.
• Pour in milk/cereal mixture and mix until smooth.
• Spoon batter into muffin pan and sprinkle a little extra brown sugar on top.
• Bake for 20 minutes, until firm.
• Allow to cool for 5 minutes in pan then transfer.

These last in an air-tight container for about 5 days....or keep a few out and freeze the rest for later!
