Fibre 1* Flax Seed Morning Glory Muffins

My Notes: Short of taking a hammer to it, it's darned hard to crush Fibre 1* cereal. I just let it soak in the milk and then mashed it up with my potato masher instead. And while I haven't actually tried it, I suspect you could easily substitute All-Bran cereal in this recipe as well. I didn't have any ground flax seeds, so I just left them out. Other than missing out on all that Omega 3 goodness, it still produced a tasty muffin.

ingredients

1 cup Fibre 1* Original cereal, crushed
2/3 cup skim milk
1 cup flour
3/4 cup ground flax seed
3/4 cup chopped apple

1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup flaked coconut
1 tbsp canola or soybean oil
1 tbsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs, slightly beaten
