INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

In large bowl, combine cereal, raisins and dates; pour in boiling water and
stir until softened. Set aside.
In another large bowl, sift together flour, baking soda and salt; make well
in center and set aside.
In food processor or blender, combine 1 cup of the buttermilk, the eggs and
spreadable fruit; puree until smooth.
Pour the buttermilk mixture into separate large bowl and add the remaining
cup buttermilk, the applesauce, sugar, oil and vanilla; beat until smooth.
Pour into well in flour mixture and stir just until blended. Add reserved
cereal mixture and stir just to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and
refrigerate at least 24 hours before using.
When ready to use, preheat oven to 375F. Spray twenty-four 2 3/4" muffin
cups with nonstick cooking spray.
Spoon batter evenly into prepared cups, filling each about two-thirds full;
bake until golden brown and puffy, 20-25 minutes. Let cool 2 minutes, then
remove to wire rack and let cool to room temperature. Repeat with remaining
batter to make 60 muffins, or cover and refrigerate remaining batter for up
to 1 month.

Bake a Better Muffin: Spray muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray; fill
tins two-thirds full with batter; add a few tablespoons water to the empty
spaces to keep empty cups from burning. For easier removal, allow muffins
to "rest" in tins a few moments after baking. To reheat muffins, wrap
loosely in foil, then heat in a 450F oven about 5 minutes.
Notes: Don't gasp at the quantity this recipe yields! The virtue of these
delicious muffins is that you make the batter once, then dip into it to
make batch after batch--or just a few at a time. The batter will keep,
covered, in the refrigerator up to 1 month, or baked muffins can be frozen.
*BUTTERMILK once was the liquid left after butter is churned. Today
buttermilk is produced by adding special bacteria to skim or partially skim
milk. Buttermilk has a slightly tangy flavor and a creamy texture. MAKES
