My amazing sister, Lisa, just sent me another cute children's heathly eating cookbook (just because she's nice and super thoughtful) that I love to read. And I've been thinking a lot lately about how I can improve the sugary cereal for breakfast situation that Blake is in without having to get up at 5 am with him. And this was the perfect solution. (Except there's kind of a lot of butter in this recipe, so I think I'll try to reduce it a little next time) So thanks, Lisa! Your book will not only help Ella in a couple of months, but it's helping Blake out now! And you should try this recipe out, too.
Cereal Fruit Cupcakes makes 12 7 T butter 1/3 C honey 1-3/4 C rolled oats 1-3/4 C unsweetened crispy rice cereal 1 T white sesame seeds 1 C mixed dried fruit (I used dried cranberries and apples), chopped 1/3 C toasted cashews (or any other type of nut you want)
Melt the butter and honey in a small pan over low heat.
Mix the rolled oats, crispy rice, sesame seeds, dried fruit, and chopped nuts together in a bowl. Add the melted butter and honey, and stir to combine.
Sponn into a muffin pan lined with peper liners and press down well. Place in the fridge for at least 6 hours.
