Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups Oat Bran Cereal
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup boiling water
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup Cherry Preserves
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 Tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 salt

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

In a large bowl combine the bran, oil, and boiling water and stir until well mixed. Add the beaten egg, buttermilk and cherry preserves. Mix well. Combine the remaining dry ingredients and add to the above. Stir just enough to moisten dry ingredients.

Place paper liners in mini muffin tins. Use a scant tablespoon of batter to fill each liner. Press a cherry from the jar of preserves into the center of each muffin. Bake for 18 minutes. Makes 42
