Breakfast Cereal Muffins

Wonderful breakfast, brunch, or mid-morning snack. This recipe is very versatile. Any kind of cereal works, and you can substitute dried fruit and/or nuts for part of the cereal. If using a cooked, hot cereal like oatmeal, combine with wet ingredients instead of dry.

Ingredients
1 egg
1/4 cup salad oil or vegetable oil
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup honey
1 cup flour
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Grease 12 medium sized (2 3/4" diameter) muffin cups.
3. In a mixing bowl, beat egg and whisk together with oil, milk and honey.
4. In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients; mixed well.
5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir just until flour is moist (batter should be lumpy).
6. Fill muffin cups 2/3 full with the batter, and bake for 20-25 minutes (until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted).
7. Remove from pan immediately.
