Better for You Breakfast Muffins

This is not considered a Whole Food.  I wanted to make a Healthier muffin for my son and I think I'm on to something here.  I still have some more substitutions I want to try next time, now that I know this worked out pretty good.  Each muffin (this makes 12) has about 80 calories, 5g Sugar and about 1/2g Fat.  I am going to adjust it some more next time I make these and hopefully cut out more sugar and calories.  (I adjusted this recipe of Raisin Bran Muffins to make these)

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cups Corn Flakes (shown in picture below)
  • 1 cup Almond Milk
  • 1/2 cup Pumpkin Puree (Next time I wont used canned, but either fresh Pumpkin or a sweet potato or squash)
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar (I'm going to try and substitute this out next time as well)
  • 1/8 cup Honey
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla
  • 1/2 cup All Purpose Flour (next time I'll use all Oat Flour)
  • 1/2 cup Oat Flour (I put Organic Oats through the food processor)
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 cup Organic Raisins
Directions:
  • Let Corn Flakes sit in milk for about 10 minutes.
  • Add Pumpkin
  • Puree mixture
  • Add Sugar, Honey and vanilla
  • Add dry ingredients
  • Add Raisins
  • Drop into Muffin cups
  • Bake 400* for about 18 minutes
