Healthy Style Muffins

Strawberry Muffins

These are great tasting muffins! They are flour free, without any added sugars.  They may not be as sweet as the Starbucks or bakery muffins but I would still say they are pretty sweet. (Iris approved)  ;)

Ingredients:

1. preheat oven at 350^o
2. Blend Bananas until there are no chunks.
3. in a bowl add all the ingredients, and mix them up 
4. put them into the muffin paper cups, and bake for 15-20 minutes. (these will look a little moist even when they are fully baked, so they may not pass the "knife-poking test" I try to see if they are browning on top and its past 15 minutes, they should be good.)
5. DONE!  so eassyy!

1. wash the strawberries & dry them very well
2. take out the leaves, and cut them in slices
3. put them in a pan with the sugar and leave them there for 30 minutes until they get juicy
4. add the drops of lime and put them on high heat
5. when it starts to boil lower the heat to medium  and leave it there for 45 minutes or up to 1 hour, mixing it once in a while to make sure it doesn't stick to the pan.
6. Take it out of the heat once you get the consistency you want, but take into account that once its cold it will be drier/more solid
