Strawberry Mango Muffins - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 -3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1/2 cup butter, softened
    3 ounces cream cheese, softened
    3 large eggs
    3/4 cup applesauce (I like to use cinnamon flavored)
    4 ounces vanilla yogurt
    1 teaspoon lemon juice
    1 cup chopped strawberry
    1 cup chopped mango
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
    Grease the bottoms of muffin cups or line with paper wrappers; set aside.
    In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
    In a larger bowl, mix butter, sugars and cream cheese together, blending until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly. Add applesauce, yogurt, add lemon juice stirring until combined.
    Add dry ingredients from medium bowl to the large bowl, with creamy mixture, stirring just until moistened.
    Gently fold in strawberries and mango.
    Divide batter evenly among greased muffin cups.
    Add optional topping over top muffin cups. See tip above for ideas.
    Bake 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Time may vary depending on the size muffin cups used.
    Cool 10 minutes in cups on wire racks. Remove muffins from cups and let cool completely.
