Delicious Low-Fat Strawberry Banana Muffins

Genevieve #2's Note:

These are so moist and flavourful it's hard to believe they are low-fat.

My finicky husband liked these! I cut the white sugar to 1/2 cup and did not pack the brown sugar. I also only had vanilla yogurt. The recipe produced enough batter that each muffin cup was filled to the top. Tip: do as the recipe says, and grease the pan...even if you line with paper cups as I did. About 1/3 of the muffin bottom stuck! LOL! Tasty muffins and so glad to use our strawberries in this healthier recipe. Thanks!
