For a richer flavor, try using melted butter instead of olive oil.
If your cranberry sauce is very tart, add up to 1/2 cup of brown sugar.
Toasting the pecans before chopping enhances their flavor and crunch.
These muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
