[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but my muffins turned out dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

[email protected]These muffins were easy to make and turned out great! I used fresh apricots from my tree and they added a delicious sweetness to the muffins. I also added a bit of chopped walnuts for some extra texture.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of apricots, but I decided to try these muffins anyway. I'm so glad I did! The chocolate and apricot flavors are perfectly balanced, and the muffins are incredibly moist. I'll definitely be making these again.
