How to make Strawberry Muffin?

Preparation time : 20 minutes

Cooking Time : 18 minutes

Yield : 28 mini muffins or 14 standard muffins

Ingredients :

Unsalted Butter : 115 g, At Room temperature*

Sugar : 115 g

All Purpose Flour (maida) : 115 g

Eggs : 2, At room Temperature*

Baking Powder : 1 1/2 tsp

Vanilla Extract : 1 tsp

Salt : 1/8 tsp (a pinch)

Milk : 2 tbsp, at room temperature*
Strawberries : 6-8, finely chopped

Note : Ingredients that are marked with ' * ', should be at room temperature. Otherwise Top side of muffins will turn sticky when it cools down.

Method :

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) and line muffin pan with paper liners.

2. Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder.

3. With an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar together until blended. Add the egg one by one and continue beating until the mixture is creamy.

4. Fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture. Combine well with a wooden spatula. 

5. Now add Vanilla extract and milk. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Now add strawberries and gently stir once. (Do not Over mix the batter)

6. Scoop the batter into muffin cups almost 3/4th of it and bake for 14 minutes for mini muffins and 17 minutes for standard muffins. Always check a few minutes before the stated baking time. (Do not over bake as it makes the muffin dry.) Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool. Once the muffins have completely cooled, you can frost with icing.
