MUFFIN: Popeye Cereal Muffins

Hearty multi-grain muffins.
Source: It's been decades, but I believe this came off of then-Stone-Buhr, now Stone Ground Mills, Inc. 7-grain cereal package. Maybe.

● 2 1/2 cups 7-grain cereal (originally Seattle's Stone-Buhr's but no longer available under that name...now Stone Ground Mill) Can also use 4-grain or mix your own!
● 2 1/4 cups milk
● 1/2 up raisins (optional)
● 2/3 cup soft shortening (butter)
● 1 egg
● 2 cups sifted flour (I use half whole wheat or spelt)
● 2/3 cup sugar
● 4 tsp baking powder
● 1 tsp salt

Combine cereal and milk. Let stand 10 minutes, then add raisins, if using.

Add shortening and egg, beat well.

Sift together dry ingredients and sugar, then add to cereal mixture and stir just until incorporated.

Bake at 400°F for 25 - 30 minutes.

Really good when hot out of oven (isn't everything?!)

To make a variation using honey, do this:
decrease milk slightly (~1/8 cup); replace sugar with honey; add 1/4 tsp baking soda. Best if 1/2 cup of flour is [added?]

Spread the word
