I've long loved strawberry baked goods, but the recipe I generally used was stuffed with oil. This variation uses yogurt and mashed bananas instead, which gives them a great texture and flavor. The cinnamon is a fun extra touch.

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 eggs
1/3 cup full-fat plain yogurt
1/3 cup mashed banana
1 cup mashed strawberries
1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350.

2. Whisk together dry ingredients. Add remaining ingredients and stir just until combined.

3. Fill 12 greased or lined muffin tins with batter. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until tops are lightly browned and a toothpick comes out cleanly.
