Ingredients

  • Strawberry Muffins
  • 120g | 1 cup flour (+1tbsp to mix with strawberries)

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • A pinch of salt

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 59ml | 1/4 cup milk

  • 57g | 4 tbsp butter (melted)

  • 125g | ½ cup + 2 tbsp sugar

  • A cup of diced frozen strawberries

  • 3 tbsp strawberry jam

  • Decoration (optional)
  • 240g | 1 cup heavy cream

  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar

  • Fresh strawberries

  • Powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Strawberry Muffins
  • Preheat the oven to 425F/218C.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In another mixing bowl add the egg, vanilla extract, milk butter and sugar. Mix until well combined.
  • Fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Don’t over mix it so you don’t get a chewy muffin.
  • In a small bowl, toss the strawberries with the tbsp of flour and fold the strawberries into the muffin batter.
  • Prepare a 6 cup muffin pan with liners, and you can use a large ice cream scoop to equally spoon the batter into each cup.
  • Add a little bit of strawberry jam on top of each muffin and use a spoon or toothpick to swirl it around.
  • Bake at 425F/218C for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 375F/190C (you don’t need to open the oven) and bake about 10 to 15 mins more or until golden.
  • Let muffins cool in the baking pan for about 10 mins, then transfer to a cooling rack.
    The muffins taste delicious without all the decorations, but here’s how I decorate them.
  • Decoration (optional)
  • In a large bowl, add the heavy cream and powdered sugar.
  • Whip on medium-high speed using an electric hand mixer until medium peaks form.
  • Transfer the whipped cream to the piping bag fitted with a star tip.
  • Cut in half some of the fresh strawberries.
  • Pipe the whipped cream over the muffins like in the video and add fresh strawberries.
  • Sprinkle some icing sugar for a bit of magic and it’s ready, Enjoy!
