We had some beautiful strawberries in the refrigerator that the kids weren't eating, so I decided to make something that would change that. Not as healthy as the strawberries by themselves, but incredibly tasty. Greatly inspired by this excellent recipe: http://lmld.org/2013/06/10/bakery-style-strawberry-muffins/

Time 30m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup light butter, softened
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract, pure
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
1/2 cup half-and-half
2 cups strawberries, chopped
1/4 cup butter, melted (topping)
2/3 cup brown sugar (topping)
1 teaspoon cinnamon (topping)
1/2 cup flour (topping)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Combine butter with 3/4 cup of brown sugar in a mixing bowl. Blend in eggs, vanilla extract, salt, and half-and-half.
  • With a mixer running on low, gradually blend in baking powder and 2 cups of flour, scraping down the sides if needed.
  • Remove bowl from mixer, and blend in chopped strawberries by hand.
  • In a separate bowl, combine remaining butter, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon to create topping.
  • Place 18 cupcake papers in cupcake tin, and spoon strawberry batter evenly into each. Sprinkle an even amount of topping on each cup.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out cleanly from the cupcakes. Remove from cupcake tin and allow to cool before serving.
