I'm not a huge fan of caramel, but these muffins were still really good. The muffin itself is very moist and flavorful, and the pecan topping adds a nice crunch.

My family loved these muffins. They were so moist and flavorful. I used chopped pecans instead of walnuts, and they turned out great. I will definitely be making these again.
