Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.75 cups milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1.5 cups fresh strawberries (diced)
- 0.5 cups light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.33 cups all-purpose flour (for streusel)
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoons of salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 0.5 cups of melted unsalted butter, 0.75 cups of milk, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and 2 large eggs until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter will be slightly lumpy.
Fold in 1.5 cups of diced fresh strawberries, being careful not to mash them.
For the streusel topping, combine 0.5 cups of light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 0.33 cups of all-purpose flour in a small bowl. Cut in 0.25 cups of cold, cubed unsalted butter with a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Scoop the batter evenly into the muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over each muffin.
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your homemade Strawberry Streusel Muffins!
