Cranberry Breakfast Muffins image

A friend asked me months ago to post this recipe and I'm only getting around to it now! He likes Red River cereal and was intrigued by the fact that I have a muffin recipe that uses it. For those of you who don't know what Red River cereal is, it contains cracked wheat, rye and flax and is very healthy. I have only seen it sold in Canada though so if you want to try this, you may have to experiment with various combinations of the above. Please note that standing time is included in the cooking time.
