Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Fresh strawberries, diced
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with non-stick spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 5
Fold in the diced strawberries gently to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
Step 6
In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Set aside.
Step 7
Spoon a tablespoon of batter into each muffin cup, filling them about one-third of the way. Add a small dollop (about a teaspoon) of the cream cheese mixture to the center of each muffin, then top with additional batter until the cups are about three-quarters full.
Step 8
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the muffin (avoiding the cream cheese center) comes out clean.
Step 9
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy your freshly baked strawberries and cream muffins as a sweet treat or breakfast delight!
