I'm not sure what went wrong, but my muffins turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

These muffins are very dense. I would add more baking powder to the recipe next time.

I had some trouble getting the muffins to rise. I think I may have overmixed the batter.

These muffins are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe next time.

I made these muffins with ground turkey instead of sausage and they were still very good. I also added some chopped spinach.
