"I created these for a contest. While I had to use white flour as a contest ingredient- I tried to compensate with other healthy ingredients. I hope you enjoy these soft fruity muffins. They seem like something you would buy at a bakery! If you like a lot of streusel double it. The glaze is optional but adds a nice fruity sweet touch. You could also try this as a loaf baked at 350F."
