3/4 c Strawberries (diced)
3/4 c peaches (diced) I used 1 medium peach
*Make sure peaches & strawberries are patted dry

  7. Dice peach and strawberries for 3/4 c each.
  8. Pat dry diced peaches.
  9. Pour mixture into a medium bowl.  Fold in 1/2 of peaches (3/4 c) and 1/2 of strawberries (3/4 c). Leave some fruit to top muffins.
