These muffins are a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter and fluffier muffin.

These muffins are a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I substituted almond flour for all-purpose flour and the muffins turned out great! They were just as moist and fluffy as the original recipe.
