Ingredients
To make these fresh strawberry muffins, you’ll need:
- All-Purpose Flour – 2 cups
- Granulated Sugar – ¾ cup
- Baking Powder – 2 teaspoons
- Salt – ½ teaspoon
- Eggs – 2 large
- Milk – ¾ cup
- Vegetable Oil – ½ cup
- Vanilla Extract – 1 teaspoon
- Fresh Strawberries – 1 ½ cups, diced
- Optional: Powdered sugar for dusting
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Fold in the Strawberries
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Fold in the diced strawberries gently.
5. Fill the Muffin Tin
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
6. Bake the Muffins
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Optional Finishing Touch
Once cooled, dust the muffins with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
Tips for Success
- Use Fresh Strawberries: For the best flavour, use ripe and juicy strawberries.
- Don’t Overmix: Overmixing the batter can make the muffins dense instead of fluffy.
- Add a Crunchy Topping: Sprinkle coarse sugar or streusel on top of the muffins before baking for added texture.
