These are very tasty! The only thing I did differently was to add 2 T ground flax meal, and I had to use all oil (went a little short) because I ran out of applesauce. Also, I did mush up the fresh strawberries that I used. The one thing these are missing is a little salt. Maybe that's what the applesauce would have done to help resolve that issue. These will be great to add to our morning rotation of breads for coffee!

My kids really enjoyed them and they were great the first day, but after that the strawberries seemed really soggy.

I usually love muffins like this, but these were really not good at all. They looked and smelled wonderful, but they were pretty dense and tasted like straight wheat flour. I was quite disappointed.

Very yummy! I increased the baking powder to 2 tsp., decreased the cinnamon to just 1 tsp., added a scant tsp. of salt, used whole wheat pastry flour, and diced fresh strawberries. Turned out great! With less cinnamon the subtle flavors of the strawberries and bananas come through nicely. Made 18 muffins, just a little larger than standard. This one's a keeper!

Another keeper. I reduced the cinnamon by half, used apple and peach sauce, and added more strawberries. All purpose white flour works well also. I make them in batches and freeze them. When filling the muffins cups, I avoid placing strawberries at the bottom.

These muffins were very moist and good, but there wasn't enough strawberry flavor. They mostly tasted like banana muffins. I will make again but maybe add more strawberries.

Very moist and rich with flavor. Used more applesauce instead of oil. Used brown sugar splenda instead of normal brown sugar. And blended the strawberries and bananas. Used only half of the cinnamon. Worked great.

Instead of using strawberries all I had were blueberries. Turned out great! And I will try adding oats next time, sounds good. The batter was delicious! Great alternative for white flour.

Following other people's suggestions, I used 2 bananas + 1/2 cup oats, and yogurt and applesauce. I reduced the cinnamon to 2 tsp. and added 1/4 tsp. nutmeg. I partially mashed really really cold strawberries (they did not have time to freeze).

One of the best whole wheat muffins I have made. I used fresh strawberries, diced. Instead of applesauce, I used apple butter and left out additional spices. My son loved them too!

These were very moist muffins. I did take the advice of others and used applesauce instead of oil, brown sugar/splenda, 1egg and 1 egg white, 3/4 tbsp. cinnimon, 1 tsp. allspice, 1 tsp. baking powder, 1/2 cup oatmeal. I also used fresh strawberries and it turned out just fine.

Really great muffins for being so healthy!! :) I didn't have apple sauce, so I substituted plain yogurt. I also cut the Cinnamon in half (as others recommended) but did not use nutmeg... I just don't like the taste. They were fabulous! oh - and I used fresh strawberries... we had gone strawberry picking and had so many!

I LOVE this recipe!!! I took others advice and added tsp allspice, made mine with all applesauce to replace the oil,Splenda Brown Sugar blend, and with egg whites. I made mine into a banana bread and omitted the strawberries another reviewer said she cooked hers for 50 minutes be careful with the temp/time mine were only in about 40 minutes and I almost burnt it. SOOOOO GOOOOOD! Thanx for sharing such a great recipe.

These are very yummy! My 4 year old thinks they are sour (from the strawberries), but I thought they turned out terrific! I also put a little less sugar in them.

Very tasty! I made a couple of changes to make them even more healthy... Instead of just regular canola oil I used coconut oil (much more healthy for you ) and I decreased the sugar to 1/2 a cup. Turned out great! My kids love them!
