Sunny Boy Muffins

It feels like forever since I last made muffins.  We have rearranged our house and as some may know greater organization comes from great mess.  We are almost at the organization part.  I found the kitchen today and I decided to make muffins.  While organizing I discovered that I had two opened boxes of Sunny Boy Cereal or as some may know it Red River Cereal.  I want to use it up so I am looking for creative ways to get my toddler to eat it.  While searching I found these muffins.  I am impressed the flax seeds make the muffin a bit crunchy but they are light and healthy.  I think I will make these again for my friend who is pregnant, it is always good to get good grains in.
