Last weekend my teacher brought in some delicious homemade muffins, and it got me thinking about how convenient muffins were as a breakfast item. I started thinking about how I used to buy muffins every morning with a tea at the local McDonald's or Tim Hortons, and I thought about what actual ingredients might be …

It was so fun to make, and I hope that maybe …
