Add 1 ½ cups mashed banana, ½ cup oats and ¼ cup chopped nuts with ½ teaspoon cinnamon to wet ingredients before adding Rosemont Inn Muffin Mix.
Banana Blueberry
Mash 1 large banana with liquids. Sprinkle 1 cup blueberries onto Rosemont Inn Muffin Mix before folding together.

Blackberry Cheddar
Add 1 ½ cups chopped blackberries and ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese as well as ¼ teaspoon each mace and nutmeg onto the dry Rosemont Inn Muffin Mix before folding together. (This combination is based on an Amish recipe. It sounds strange but is unusually good.)
