These muffins were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

These muffins were a bit dry for my taste. I think I might try adding some more butter or oil next time.

I love that these muffins are made with whole wheat flour. It makes them a bit healthier than your average muffin.

These muffins are a great make-ahead breakfast. I made them on the weekend and reheated them in the microwave during the week.

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

These muffins are a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of orange-flavored desserts, but these muffins were surprisingly good. The orange flavor is subtle and not overpowering.

These muffins are a great way to use up leftover oranges. I always have a few oranges in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.
