Very nice! I used frozen strawberries that i thawed in the microwave then drained. I also added 1/2 a chopped banana to the batter. I made my muffins a little bigger, getting 9. I also only used 1 cup sugar in the whole recipe and I melted 2 1/2 tbsps light 'I cant believe its not butter' spread for the 3 tbsps butter. I will maek these again! -
These were very good. Mine came out a bit wet, but I think it was from using frozen strawberries. I will probably drain them in the future. Absolutely loved the flavor. -
These muffins were quite good! I liked the combination of strawberry and orange flavor and the light moist texture of the muffins. I will be making these again!
