Strawberry Mango Muffins image

I needed to use up extra strawberries and mangoes. Instead of another fruit salad, I came up with this recipe. I have made these using both regular and mini muffin cups. TIP: For a special touch add a topping to your muffins before you bake them. Over batter in muffin cups, sprinkle quick-cooking rolled oats, a homemade streusel, cinnamon and sugar, coconut flakes or chopped nuts.
