Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granola or muesli
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cup Light brown sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 0.75 cup Milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Optional mix-ins like raisins, dried cranberries, or chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granola or muesli, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and light brown sugar. Whisk together to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula or wooden spoon. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be just combined.

Step 5

If using optional mix-ins like raisins, dried cranberries, or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter.

Step 6

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

Step 8

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve the muffins slightly warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
