I found that these muffins were a bit dry, but they were still tasty. I think I would add a little more moisture next time, maybe some applesauce or yogurt.

I was pleasantly surprised by how moist and flavorful these muffins were. I've made other gingerbread muffins before that were dry and bland, but these were anything but.

I made these muffins gluten-free by using gluten-free flour and they turned out great! They were just as moist and flavorful as the regular muffins.
