Fantastic. I used all strawberries and added in one mashed banana. I also cut the sugar down to about 1/3 c, used applesauce in place of the oil, and used whole wheat flour. These were so moist and delicious. For me this recipe made 14 regular muffins (cupcake size). I love them and my kids did, too. NOTE: DO NOT USE the paper liners. We lose about 1/3 of the muffin as it sticks to the liner. However, the mini-muffins I made and sprayed with non-stick spray came out perfectly.

Our strawberries turned out really great this year and I used them in this muffin recipe. They had a wonderful juicy berry flavor. Very moist and tender. All in my family loved them and there were none left-over. I didn't use paper cups, just greased my muffin tin and they came out fine. Thanks for posting this recipe.

Almost perfect, must be the two eggs that make it so large, could get away with filling 1/3 muffin cup (used silicon muffin cups; works perfectly). Diced strawberries and added extra 1/2 cup (used both frozen; didn't thaw & fresh). Added 1/3 cup of milk (rice or coconut milk). And used sunflower oil and turbinado sugar. Added 1/4 cup flour for high altitude and baked at 400 degrees;getting too brown too fast.
