Strawberry Lemon Muffins with Struesel

These tender and flavorful strawberry lemon muffins take about 30 to make and are the perfect sweet breakfast or snack.
Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes

Ingredients
 

  • 2 1/4 C. All-Purpose Flour (plus 1/2 Tbsp. To toss strawberries)
  • 1/2 tsp. Salt
  • 1/2 tsp. Baking soda
  • 1 tsp. Baking powder
  • 1/2 C. Honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 C. Oil (such as avocado, canola or vegetable oil)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 C. Buttermilk Milk
  • 1/2 C. Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla extract
  • 1 C. Strawberries (diced into bite size pieces)
  • 2 Tbsp. Lemon zest
  • 2 Tbsp. Lemon juice

Streusel topping:

  • 3 Tbsp. All-purpose Flour
  • 3 Tbsp. Sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. butter (cold and cut into small pieces)
  • 1/2 tsp. Cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 415 degrees F.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, add the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Whisk together and set aside.
  • In a separate large mixing bowl, add the honey, eggs, oil, buttermilk, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest and vanilla extract. Whisk together until fully combined.
  • Pour the dry ingredients into the wet and stir until just combined. It is OK of there are a few lumps.
  • Add the diced strawberries in 1/2 tablespoon of flour and toss until the strawberries are coated. Add the strawberries to the batter and gently fold in. Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes.
  • While the batter is resting, make the streusel topping by combining the flour, sugar and cinnamon together in a medium bowl (you can re-use the bowl from the dry ingredients to save on dishes!). Mix together. Add the butter pieces and cut into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter or fork until the butter is broken down into very small pieces.
  • Line 12 muffin tins with muffin liners. Divide the strawberry batter into the 12 muffin tins evenly. Evenly sprinkle each muffin with streusel.
  • Bake the muffins at 415 degrees F. for 5 minutes. Then reduce the heat down to 375 degrees F and bake for an additional 10-13 minutes or until the muffins are set and toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center. Let cool slightly and enjoy!
