Time 50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup diced fresh strawberries
1 tablespoon honey
1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
1 tablespoon white sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 eggs, lightly beaten
½ cup milk
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Combine cream cheese, strawberries, and honey in a food processor; pulse until smooth. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray 12 muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper muffin liners.
  • Mix strawberries and 1 tablespoon sugar in a bowl. Set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Stir flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Whisk eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and orange zest in a small bowl until well blended. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture, stirring until just combined.
  • Drain strawberries and gently fold into the batter. Divide the batter equally among the prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm or cooled with the strawberry cream cheese spread.

I'm not a big fan of cream cheese, but these muffins still look really good. I might try them without the cream cheese spread.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my muffins came out dry and crumbly. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my muffins didn't turn out as fluffy as I expected. They were still tasty, though.

These muffins were a hit with my family! They were so moist and fluffy, and the cream cheese spread was the perfect finishing touch. I will definitely be making these again.
