They’re like a “grab and go” bowl of hot cereal
Preheat your oven to 500˚
In a small bowl, pour the warmed rice milk over the cereal mix and let it sit for 10 minutes. Add the oil and stir.
In another bowl, mix the flour, maple sugar, baking powder and salt. Pour the wet mix into the dry mix and stir until just mixed.
Add the fruit. If you are using fresh fruit, stir this very gently, just once or twice, to avoid mashing the fruit.
Oil your muffin pan, inside and on the top. If you’re using muffin papers, just oil the top of the pan. Using a tablespoon, fill the muffin pan to the top, or even a little above. (I know this is not the usual way, but if you fill them 3/4 full, they’re just sad looking) This will make about 8 muffins.
Turn you oven down to 400˚ and bake for 25 – 30 minutes. Allow to cool for 20 minutes before eating…if you can.

I have made these twice now. I’m not much of a breakfast eater and wanted something I could have with my coffee that was quick and easy. Oh, and if the kids would eat them also, that would be a bonus. The first batch was, o.k. Not great, just o.k. Edible.
Round two I took the advice of the last post and soaked the oats (btw, my grocer only carries the 5-grain but who cares. anyhow. . . ) for what was going to be overnight, but ended up being 2 days. Oops. I’m sure overnight would have sufficed. I did sub the applesauce for the oil, but added an additional Tbsp. of flax oil. I try to stick it in as many things as possible. I also gave the dry mix a hefty shake of cinnamon. This time round I opted for mini-muffins in an attempt to entice the children. This dropped the cooking time to 10-12 mins.
Soaking the oats made the muffins less chewy and dense. Also I think making them mini helped with the density. Adding the cinnamon masked the “healthy flavor” for the kiddos. I think next time I’ll add a few choc. chips??? I like chocolate with my coffee, what can I say

Yes, 7 grain hot cereal, not flaked cereal. You could use 9 grain or 11 grain as well, whatever you can find in your local store. You could soak it overnight but I like the “nutty” quality that these muffins have with a shorter soak. I went into detail about the cereal on my blog. I also posted a picture of the brand I used.

Could you clarify about the 7-grain cereal? I assume you mean the hot/cooked cereal but wanted to make sure. If you do mean the hot cereal, it would be even better to let it sit for at least an hour or overnight. It will be far more digestible that way.
