    Strawberry Muffins

    Welcome back to week 4 of this month long baking marathon. For 4th week I had initially planned on doing cakes. Husband was reluctant to eat cakes and was willing to taste the muffins. In fact he ate all the muffins I made for this marathon that is, if I left any for him. First three days I will post muffin recipes and the last three days of this week is going to be cakes.

    Today’s recipe is a quick and easy muffin recipe with ingredients readily available in any pantry. The only ingredients to buy are strawberries but these berries can be substituted with any berries. The recipe calls for fresh strawberries but frozen, thawed strawberries can also be used. These muffins can be served for breakfast or as a school snack and after school snack.

    I made half the recipe and was tempted to make mini muffins. I like mini muffins as it is great way to portion control and always bake mini ones. This time I made regular muffins as I wanted to use up the paper muffin cups I bought few months ago. I bought these paper muffin cups for the BM # 50 goody bag and later decided not to gift these. Now I am left with 4, 20 count muffin cups! If not for the BM meet, I can always use them for the BM baking!

    Note:

    • Strawberries – If strawberries are not available, can use frozen strawberries that were thawed and drained.

      Strawberry in muffins and cakes makes the bake a lot more appealing. the little red berry peeking from inside always looks cute :-).

      It is hard when there are no kids around to savor what you bake and the other adults are not ready to share calories with you. If not for my kids, I would probably never bake. 🙂
      Both muffins and muffin liners look good.
