The muffins were a bit too crumbly. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I made these muffins with gluten-free flour and they turned out great! They're a great option for people with gluten sensitivities.

I'm not a big fan of cranberries, but I really enjoyed these muffins. The pecans and orange zest really balance out the tartness of the cranberries.

The muffins didn't rise very well. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These muffins are a great way to use up leftover cranberries. I always have a bunch after Thanksgiving, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.

The muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

Meh. The muffins were a bit dry and the flavor was just okay. I don't think I'll be making them again.

Not bad! The muffins were easy to make and turned out pretty well. I think I'll add some chopped walnuts next time for extra crunch.

These muffins were a hit at my holiday party! They were moist and flavorful, and the cranberries added a nice tartness. I'll definitely be making them again.
