Preparation time: 15 minutes
Refrigeration time: at least 1 hour
Baking time: 11–13 minutes per batch

1 box (15 ounces) raisin bran cereal
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
3 cups Equal Sugar Lite baking blend
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons baking soda
1 quart 1% buttermilk
1 cup canola oil
1 cup liquid egg substitute
Place all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir to mix well. Refrigerate batter at least one hour before baking muffins to allow cereal to soften. Preheat oven to 400°F. Stir batter. Line muffin tins with paper baking cups. Fill each I full with batter (approximately 3/4 cup batter per muffin). Bake for 11–13 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in muffins comes out clean.
