Red River Date Muffins created by Tricia H.

I adapted this from a recipe on the Robin Hood site, makers of Red River cereal, which by the way, is an EXCELLENT high fiber, tasty hot cereal. It called for cranberries, didn't have any, coped. My 3 year old grandson loves these "muppins". Very moist, tasty.

Instead of milk used remaining beer from making beer muffins. No baking soda on had substituted with baking powder, a 1:3 ratio. Would soak Red River Cereal longer for softer grains. Good recipe for using up dates.

Delicious! Texture and taste were excellent. I'm surprised because I tweaked a few things.
