  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with nonstick spray.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups raisin bran cereal, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 large egg, and 1/4 cup water.
  4. Let the mixture stand for 5 minutes, then stir gently to break up the cereal.
  5. Add the remaining ingredients (see ingredient list below) and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Enjoy warm, with a drizzle of honey (optional).
