Number of Servings: 12

Ingredients

    1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 egg
    1/2 cup wheat or oat bran
    1 tsp orange zest (from two small oranges)
    1/4 cup whole milk
    1 3/4 cup All-Purpose flour, sifted
    2 tsp double-acting baking powder
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp Baking Soda
    1/2 cup orange juice (juice from two oranges)
    1/2 cup slivered almonds
    1/4 cup Uncle Sam cereal

Directions

Combine all ingredients except almonds and cereal, alternating wet and dry. Mix gently by hand until ingredients are just blended. The batter should be thick. Fold in almonds.
Divide batter into muffin cups (use muffin liners or they will stick like crazy!) and top with Uncle Sam cereal.
Bake at 375ºF for 30 min., or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
