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 were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sweetener next time.

I wasn't a fan of the texture of these muffins. They were a bit too dense for my liking.

These muffins were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add a little extra moisture next time, maybe some applesauce or mashed banana.
