Strawberry Banana Muffins packed full of mashed bananas and chunks of fresh strawberries. This recipe is great for a weekday morning, a leisurely weekend brunch or even as a surprise for Mother’s Day. These muffins can be made with fresh or frozen strawberries. Of course if you can find fresh I would always recommend that, however, if using frozen berries, thaw slightly, then chop with a knife.
These muffins are incredibly moist, tender and a wonderful way to start your mornings.
