Fiber Rich Muffins

Submitted by Autuamnsprite

"A muffin recipe off the box of Hodgson Mill Hot Cereal. Surprisingly good. Not too sweet, not overly "fiber-y". I shredded the apples, peel and all. The cereal in this recipe has 18 grams of fiber per cup. So, since the nutritional information doesn't reflect the cereal, these muffins have at least 2 grams of fiber per muffin."

This was pretty good! I used Bob's Red Mill multigrain ceeal & diced apples (no carrots). Instead of pecans I used some raisins, and Splenda for Sugar. Oh, and half whole wheat/half oat flour instead of all purpose. Not too sweet but very healthy!
