Mango Pear Muffins with Cinnamon Streusel Topping

As a mom of two children with Celiac, I am constantly working on creating yummy gluten free snacks to send to school. My daughter is currently in 1st grade and although she knows her snacks are different because they are gluten free, I don’t want her to feel deprived at all so I try to recreate the kinds of snacks her friends are bringing too. (It doesn’t hurt that I am a cake decorator and her baked goods sometimes look better than their gluten-ed counterparts!). I also work part time and am a mom of four, so convenience is key when it comes to baking for my family and for school snacks. I created this recipe with busy moms in mind and cheated by using jarred baby food. Don’t let the baby food scare you off! It sneaks fruits into the muffin, involves no preparation for Mom, and kids love the flavor. I bake batches of muffins on the weekends and freeze them individually in saran wrap. We pop them out of the freezer in the morning and into my daughter's lunch bag, by the time recess rolls around they are perfectly thawed and delicious.
