These light and airy strawberry muffins are very simple to make. We love adding a light spice to the batter with cinnamon and finely ground black pepper. The black pepper is a little unusual, but by adding just a small amount it lifts all the flavors in the muffins. Feel free to leave it out, but we highly recommend it.
Makes 12 muffins
YOU WILL NEEDMUFFINS
- 1 1/2 cups (195 grams) all-purpose flour, we use Gold Medal
- 3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon finely ground black pepper
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup (80 ml – 120 ml) milk, reduced fat or whole milk are best
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 6 ounces strawberries, hulled and diced (about 1 cup diced)TOPPING
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 12 standard-size muffin cups with paper liners.
- Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and the black pepper in a large bowl until well mixed.
- Using a measuring jug that holds at least 1 cup, measure out the vegetable oil. Add the egg then fill the jug to the 1-cup line with milk (this should be 1/3 to a 1/2 cup of milk). Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and whisk until blended. Pour into the bowl with flour and stir with a fork until just combined. Do not over mix. (The muffin batter will be quite thick — see note below for more details). Stir in the strawberries.
MAKE TOPPING
- In a small bowl, stir 1 tablespoon of sugar with a 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla then set aside.
TO FINISH
- Divide batter between the 12 muffin cups. (The batter will come close to the tops of the paper liners). Lightly sprinkle vanilla sugar topping over muffins.
- Bake muffins until tops are golden brown, no longer wet and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out with crumbs, not wet batter; 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
ADAM AND JOANNE'S TIPS
Frozen strawberries: Thaw frozen strawberries then dice. These can be substituted for fresh strawberries in the recipe above.
Storing: These are best eaten the same day. Overtime, they loose their crunchy top. We’ve found it best to place them in a plastic bag, seal, and store in the fridge for to 2 to 3 days then warm just before eating. To freeze muffins, wrap them tightly in aluminum foil or place them in freezer bags, and freeze for up to 3 months.
Batter Thickness: The batter should be thick and scoopable — not runny and not dry or extra thick like bread dough. If the batter is too runny, add flour, a tablespoon at a time until correct consistency. If batter is dry or too thick, add milk, a tablespoon at a time until correct consistency.
Nutrition Facts: The nutrition facts provided below are estimates. We have used the USDA Supertracker recipe calculator to calculate approximate values. We assumed reduced fat milk.
