Equipment
- 12-muffin pan
Ingredients
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour spooned and levelled, plus 1 tablespoon more for tossing with strawberries
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup strawberry jam
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tsp lemon juice add to almond milk
- ⅓ cup almond milk yogurt or buttermilk
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract or less
- 2 cups strawberries from 1 pint, diced and divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Line the 12-cup muffin pan with muffin liners.
- In a medium-sized bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar ( gradually add the sugar), then add eggs one at a time. Zest one lemon, add to the mixture and strawberry jam. Add lemon juice to the milk and set aside.
- In a medium-size bowl sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the vanilla to the milk mixture, then add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture in four additions (alternately adding the milk mixture). Mix gently until just combined, ( it's ok if there are few lumps ). Don't over-mix.
- Add and toss the flour to the diced strawberries. Add half of the strawberries to the batter. Mix and fold it gently just until combined.
- Scoop the batter evenly on the prepared muffin cups. Top each muffin evenly with the rest of the strawberries.
- Bake in preheated oven for about 20 to 24 minutes or until golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool the muffins in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer on a wire rack to cool completely.
- Filling the muffins with strawberry jam. Use a piping bag with a puff cream nozzle. Insert the nozzle in the middle of the muffin, then squeeze the piping bag.
