It’s a good idea to give your child a glass of orange juice with their cereal as vitamin C helps boost iron absorption and wholegrain cereals are a good source of iron but its hard to absorb without some vitamin C.

Healthy Breakfast Recipe Ingredients

100 g (3 1/2 oz) bran-flake cereal
250 ml (9 fl oz) milk, warmed
60g wholemeal flour
60g plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
75 g (2 1/2 oz) raisins
1 large egg
100 g (3 1/2 oz) soft dark-brown sugar
100ml (3 1/2 fl oz) sunflower oil
2 tbsp demerera sugar

  

Method:

Pre-heat the oven to 200ºC/400ºF/Gas 6.

Line a muffin tin with 8 paper cases. Put the cereal in a bowl with the milk and leave to stand for 5 minutes, until the cereal is soft (you can do this while you weigh out the other ingredients).

Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and spices into a large bowl. Reserve the bran left in the sieve. Stir in the raisins. Beat together the egg, dark-brown sugar and oil and add to the flour, along with the soaked cereal and any milk left in the bowl. Mix together.

Spoon the batter into the muffin cases (fill to the top). Mix the reserved bran from the sieve with the demerara sugar and sprinkle over the muffins. Bake for 20–25 minutes until risen and firm to the touch. Cool for 5 minutes in the tin then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight tin for up to five days.
