Makes 12 Muffins
1 egg (or 1 T egg replacer)
1/2 c turbinado sugar or brown sugar1/4 c non-hydrogenated "earth balance" natural buttery spread
2 T unsweetened organic applesauce (this helps cut the amount of oil needed).
1 c Unbleached organic white flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 c 10 Grain cereal ( a great brand is "Bob's Red Mill 10 Grain Cereal)
1- 1/4 c soymilk buttermilk or almond buttermilk (add 1 T fresh squeezed lemon juice to make the “buttermilk”)
DIRECTIONS:
MIX 10 grain cereal and "buttermilk"; allow to stand for 10 mins. while preheating oven and assembling other ingredients. CREAM sugar, buttery spread, applesauce and egg together. ADD dry ingredients and milk / grain mixture. STIR only until mixed. SPOON into greased muffin pan (I use a light spray of olive oil or grapeseed oil). SPRINKLE raw sugar granules on the top of each muffin. BAKE in 400F oven for 15 mins.
