So I found a recipe for Strawberry Choc Chip Muffins

3. Sift together the flour, cinnamon, salt and bicarboante of soda into a large bowl. Add remaining 100g sugar and mix well.
4. With a hand blender, liquidiser or food processor, puree the strawberries, apple sauce and oil together. It doesn’t have to be perfectly smooth.
