I came across this wonderful recipe at a blog called Just Making Noise, and had to make them! Unfortunately, I can’t take credit for this delicious recipe, but I did make a few changes. Of course I used xylitol instead of honey and I pureed the strawberries instead of chopping them. The strawberry cream cheese glaze poured on top makes these muffins soo heavenly!
