Strawberry Muffins
Consider yourself warned… these strawberry muffins are decadent! They are a cross between a muffin and the best cupcake you’ve ever had! They are dense and hearty like a muffin but sweet like a cupcake.
Because they are a hybrid of sorts, these muffins can be served for a special breakfast (think weekends, birthdays, or holidays) or dessert.
Of course, kids love them just as much as parents! And because they are easy to make, kids can help whip them up, too. It’s a fun way to get them excited about eating strawberries.

- 1 lb strawberry chopped
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
