Skinny Strawberry Chocolate Chip muffins


1 and 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp unsweetened applesauce
1 egg white, beaten
2/3 cup diced strawberries
1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350'
Spray muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray or insert muffin papers and set aside.

In a large bowl, gently toss flour, baking soda and cinnamon.  Set aside.
In a separate bowl mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and applesauce until no brown sugar lumps remain.
Add the beaten egg white until fully incorporated.
Then add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until just combined - do not over mix.
Gently fold in the strawberries and chocolate chips.

Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until toothpick stuck into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool before enjoying!
