Ingredients

1 cup All Bran cereal
1 cup whole milk
½ cup melted butter
1 cup brown sugar packed
1 whole egg
1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon molasses
⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt
2 whole ripe bananas mashed
½ cup Quick Oats
1 ½ cups all-purpose unbleached flour
½ cup wheat germ
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
extra oats for garnish

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray 18 muffin tins with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the milk and cereal and set aside to soak.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar and beat until smooth. Add the egg, vanilla, molasses, Greek yogurt and mashed bananas. Mix until blended.
In a separate medium sized bowl combine the oats, cinnamon, wheat germ, flour, salt, and baking powder. Alternate adding the flour mixture and the cereal to the creamed mixture until it is well blended.
Fill the muffin tins ¾ full. Sprinkle additional oats on top and bake for 15-20 minutes. Be sure not to over bake.
Remove from oven and allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan. Serve with butter and jam and refrigerate leftovers!
