Could be a cigarette or drugstore beetle in the family Anobiidae - occasional pantry pests - http://ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/2000/2083.html

It is going to come down to the antennae to separate the difference between the cigarette or drug store beetle. The cigarette beetle has circular shaped segments of antennae. As for the drug store beetle will have more rectangular shaped segments.
Though its slightly longer more narrow body type urges me to go with the drug store beetle.
