  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine egg, half-and-half, oil, banana and applesauce.
  • Whisk until well combined and the banana is broken up into very tiny pieces.
  • Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients along with strawberries.
  • Stir just to combine.
  • Do not overmix the batter.
  • Spoon batter into prepared muffin tins almost full.
  • Bake at 400° for about 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
