Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- 1/2 cup milk (whole, almond, or oat)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare a muffin tin by lining it with paper liners or greasing it with non-stick spray.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: sift all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients: whisk together egg, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
- Prepare the strawberries and gently fold them into the batter along with dollops of softened cream cheese.

Notes
Avoid overmixing to keep muffins tender. Using room temperature ingredients helps with rising.
