Ev’s Celebration Strawberry Muffins

Ev’s Celebration Strawberry Muffins

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 1/2 cups gluten free flour (King Arthur’s Measure to Measure is great)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cane sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup salted or unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup of mashed strawberries
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract (Trader Joe’s is great)

DIRECTIONS

  • Pre-heat oven to 425F degrees
  • Line a cupcake tray with muffins liners, we use the brown parchment paper ones
  • Add all the dry ingredients to a bowl and whisk
  • In a separate bowl add all the wet ingredients (except strawberries) and whisk
  • Then add the strawberries and whisk together by hand
  • Slowly add all the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients bowl
  • Mix with a hand whisk, but don’t over mix the batter
  • Fill the muffin tray with the batter
  • Sprinkle with cane sugar
  • Bake at 425F degrees for 5 minutes, and then lower to 350F degrees for about 17 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean

The strawberries can possibly require more bake-time. The batter should be lumpy. Don’t use a blender to mash strawberries–doing it by hand allows pieces of strawberries to be throughout the muffins.
