Strawberries are in season here, so i am buying them a lot because i adore that fruit and i want lots of recipes on my blog using them. I wanted to make this muffins eggless so i used my trusted egg substitute which is a banana, and called this muffin as strawberry banana muffins... I also added some yogurt which makes this muffin lighter because it has wheat flour in it.
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
