Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup sorghum flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 2 eggs, beaten

  • 1 cup dried pitted prunes, finely chopped

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • 1 cup lemonade

  • 1 cup water

  • ¼ cup dry whole-grain hot breakfast cereal

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups.

  2. Combine all-purpose flour, sorghum flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.

  3. Beat eggs in a bowl using an electric mixer until light and frothy. Add prunes, sugar, lemonade, water, and cereal to beaten eggs; mix well. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Pour batter into the prepared muffin cups.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let muffins cool completely before removing from cups.

Cook's Note:

In this recipe I use lemonade in place of light cream. I would recommend a light-flavored juice in place of milk so as to not alter the flavor too much in the finished product.
