I agree that these muffins turned out bland. I used honey-nut Cheerios because that's what I had, and I thought it would add flavor compared to regular Cheerios, but I don't think it did. The raisins and cereal give it some good chewy texture. I think this recipe is okay, but I am not so sure I would make them again. There is something lacking in the flavor department. You wouldn't think so reading the ingredients.

I just got thru bakin these. I didn't have cheerios, so I crushed oatmeal squares. Muffins baked up quite well, and are of a very good consistency, although they are bland! Next time I bake them, I do believe that I will add some cinnamon and nuts, and maybe a tastier cereal, crushed. The flavor is good, just needs a little boost. I also plumped the raisins by bringing them to a boil and letting them sit for about 10 min., then draining. I will do that next time also!
