May 5th is the final critique day in my Photography class this semester, and we are in the habit of regularly bringing some kind of snack or treat to share with the class. I have a really great basic muffin recipe, so I am thinking of baking some, but I don't know what kind! Any ideas?It is a morning class (9-1130), so I thought something breakfast/ brunch-y would be good . . . maybe something with nuts or cereal, or fruit (fitting for the spring season)? I have had the most success with an apple-pear-pecan combination, but that seems more appropriate to the autumn season I usually make them in, rather than spring.Thanks for any suggestions y'all might have--  |

| How about blueberries? Can't go wrong with that one. If you want to be creative...maybe a lemon muffin with dried cranberries? |

| I think that you should make banana muffins, or cranberry, or blueberry muffins!! Those always taste so delicous. Also, you can make apple pie, or cranberry pie, or miny tarts. I think you should definitely have fruit fillings, those will be delicious!! Why don't you ask the class what they like? Good luck! |

| You mentioned pecans/nuts or cereal - just watch the tree nut/peanut allergies. Scary how many kids are developing the allergies these days.Perhaps fruit and bagels with cream cheese. My kids love both in the morning.Good luck! |
