Melt the butter and let cool slightly. In a bowl, mix the flour with the cereal, almonds, baking powder, the grated zest, salt, cinnamon, maple syrup and vanilla sugar. In a large bowl, mix the eggs with the butter, the yogurt and the tangerine juice. Add the flour mixture to it and stir quickly to a smooth dough. Fold in the mandarin pieces and spoon into the muffin tin.
