Dairy Free Strawberry Banana Muffins

I love the fact that these muffins do not contain sugar.  I feel like the more I attempt to bake, the more I get turned off when I see the amount of sugar that actually goes inside baked goods.  Don’t get me wrong, I love eating sweets!  It’s just when you see cup after cup of sugar, it really makes you stop and think of what you’re putting in your body.  Don’t even get me started on “fake” sugars though!  I’d rather eat the real thing. 🙂  Recipe adapted recipe from: Here.
