Every time I buy strawberries in Denmark, I always feel like there is this time pressure of eating them all since they go bad so quickly. So last month I decided to make strawberry muffins using leftover strawberries. I found a really good recipe online here but changed a few things, and the end result was so yummy. The original recipe had cinnamon sprinkled on top of the muffins, and although I love cinnamon, I just thought it was weird together with strawberries, so I omitted that, but I thought of something even better. White chocolate! White chocolate and strawberries together? Sounded so delicious!
The muffins came out really moist and light, and the white chocolate adds this extra gooey vanilla goodness. Together with the fresh fruit, it’s really tasty.
So here is the recipe for strawberry white chocolate muffins! I hope you like it! :o)
