Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 420 g 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 300 g 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 4 large eggs beaten
  • 296 ml 1 1/4 cups canola oil or coconut oil
  • 375 g 2 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced and slightly mashed

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. In a separate small bowl, combine the beaten eggs and oil.
  4. Add the sliced strawberries into the egg mixture.
  5. Mix the flour mixture into the egg mixture until thoroughly combined, but do not overbeat.
  6. Spoon the batter into greased muffin tins until nearly full.
  7. Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
  8. Reduce the oven temperature to 350◦F (175◦C) and bake an additional 15-19 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

To avoid tough muffins, do not overbeat the batter.
For a more tender crumb, you can substitute 1/2 cup of the all-purpose flour with cake flour.
These muffins freeze well and can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
