Easy Strawberry Muffins
I have the perfect easy Strawberry Muffin recipe for you! It can be whipped up in no time and in the oven for a quick breakfast or after school treat. Any time is a good time for muffins.
This Strawberry Muffins Recipe is the one I use the most. It can be made with fresh or frozen strawberries. If you use frozen strawberries, thaw them slightly and then chop with a knife.
When in season fresh strawberries don't last long at my house. We love to snack on them and use them in waffles, pancakes, muffins, scones and in desserts.
Tips To Making Light And Fluffy Muffins
Make sure the cold ingredients like eggs and milk are at room temperature. Room temperature ingredients blend more easily and that helps to prevent lumps.
Don't over-mix the batter. Mix just until all ingredients are blended.
Gently fold in the strawberries lightly until well combined.
To make sure you have some strawberries on the top of the muffins you can chop up a few smaller ones and gently press them into the tops of the batter in the muffin cups.
Don't overfill the muffin pans. Only fill the liners or muffin pan about ¾ of the way full.
Variations And Substitutions
If you don't have fresh strawberries on hand you can use frozen. If you use frozen strawberries slightly thaw them and then chop with a knife.
You can substitute raspberries or blueberries for the strawberries. Or use a combination of your favorite berries.
Add white chocolate chips or dark chocolate chips to the batter for more flavor.

How To Make Strawberry Muffins
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and prepare a muffin pan with either liners or non-stick spray.
Mix together the oil, vanilla, milk and egg in a medium bowl and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients – flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, brown sugar and granulated sugar.
Toss the strawberries into the dry mixture until well coated and then add in the wet ingredients. Fold in lightly until well combined.
Fill the liners about ¾ of the way full. This should yield about 10 muffins. Baked for 25 minutes.
Cool slightly and remove from the pan.
