White Chocolate and Strawberry Muffin Ingredients
This White Chocolate and Strawberry Muffins recipe uses all your typical suspects for muffins. There are three items that make this recipe a bit special.
- Fresh Strawberries
- Lemon Juice
- White Chocolate Chips
I did use fresh strawberries and that isn’t ideal for all seasons. If you need to use frozen strawberries, that is still going to work!
If you are using frozen strawberries use the same amount, soften them up in the microwave, then drain the excess fluid (as much as possible). Then, continue on as if they were fresh. This means you will still coat them in flour.
How to Prepare the Strawberries
I have a little trick for you. Working with fresh fruit in baking doesn’t always work out well. Sometimes the fruit is too heavy for the batter, and falls to the bottom.
Alas! I have found a way to avoid this issue.
So, for this recipe you will chop the fresh strawberries into small diced squares and place in a bowl. To the same bowl add 2 teaspoons of flour and mix. By lightly coating the strawberries in flour some of their moisture is absorbed. This helps keep the strawberries dispersed throughout the batter!
This White Chocolate and Strawberry Muffins recipe is meant to have a bit of strawberry in every bite to keep the muffins juicy and moist. Be sure to follow these steps and mix the dough evenly for a proper result!
