The flavor and color of olive oil are primarily influenced by the variety of olives used, the ripeness of the olives at harvest, and the extraction method employed. Different olive varieties produce distinct flavor profiles and colors, while olives harvested at different ripeness levels can yield oils that range from fruity to bitter. Additionally, the extraction method, whether cold-pressed or refined, impacts both the oil's taste and its visual characteristics. Environmental factors such as soil type and climate also play a crucial role in determining the oil's final qualities.

It depends on what type of muffins you're baking. Extra virgin olive oil is the most flavorful of olive oils, being the product of the first pressing of the olives; therefore, it has a very distinct, olive-like flavor. So, if you're making sweet muffins, it would be better to use canola or vegetable oil. Those oils don't really have much flavor, and won't affect the taste. But, if you're making muffins that are heartier (using bran or granola or nuts, and very little, if any, sugar/fruit), then olive oil may be an interesting flavor to add.
