Very tasty, my hubby and in-laws loved them however I thought they could use some spice (I added 1 tsp vanilla, but will also add some cinnamon next time). I used a bit more than 1 cup banana, about 2/3 cup pineapple, 2/3 cup apple sauce with 2 tbsp veg oil and 1/4 cup vanilla yogurt instead of milk (i always find my muffins are dry if I don't add some extra moisture, I think it has to do with the fact that Northern Alberta is so dry). Will make again, but with some cinnamon next time! Thanks for a great recipe

This was great. I loved the strawberry on top. I used egg beaters and fat-free vanilla yogurt instead of oil. I made 6 texas sized muffins and mine cooked in about 25 mins.
