Strawberry Muffins Recipe
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter 1 stick
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour plus 1 tablespoon
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup strawberries finely chopped
- Sparkling Sugar optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a muffin tin with cups or grease with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a small bowl, toss finely chopped strawberries with 1 tablespoon butter. Set aside.
- Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, and beat until completely combined, then add the buttermilk and beat until incorporated.
- To the batter add 2½ cups flour, baking powder, soda, cinnamon, and salt. Mix until just combined. Then gently fold in the strawberries.
- Transfer batter to a 12-cup muffin tin. Sprinkle each muffin with Sparkling Sugar if desired. It gives a nice crunch to the top of the muffins but is not necessary for the flavor.
- Bake at 425 degrees for 5 minutes. Then, without opening the oven, reduce heat to 350 degrees F and bake for another 13 to 15 minutes, or until muffins are slightly golden brown and done in the center.
Notes
Buttermilk Substitution
If you don’t have buttermilk on hand, measure just shy of 1 cup milk and add a dash of white vinegar to equal 3/4 cup liquid. Let sit a couple of seconds.Nutrition
