About Strawberry Muffins
A muffin is a baked item that is baked in a mould and is individually portioned. While sweetened quick bread American muffins are common, savoury variations with components like maize and cheese, as well as less sweet varieties like traditional bran muffins, are available. Before baking, muffin batter is usually poured into a deep,
tiny cup-shaped baking pan. This creates a unique cupcake or mushroom-like shape in the final product.
These strawberry muffins are a delicious way to use up those last few strawberries from the spring and summer. They're a wonderful departure from the traditional blueberry muffins, and they're just as tasty.
The key is to use a lot of berries in the batter to give the muffins a
strong strawberry flavour.
Ingredients for strawberry muffins
Butter : Butter coats the proteins and starches during the mixing step and results in a more delicate crumb.
Milk : Milk adds a creamy texture to the muffins and can even give them a sweeter taste, especially if it is mixed with other ingredients such as butter and eggs.
Strawberry : Use fresh sweet strawberries for this recipe. You ncould use any berries or apples as well. If you cannot find fresh strawberries, try and use frozen.
