Strawberry Muffins and LOTS of Snow!

As I write this post, the snow is coming down again! I am so tired of snow ( I think I said that yesterday).On top of the 7 inches we already got, we are getting 3-5 more today.

So to brighten my mood, I decided to bake some muffins.

I bought some strawberries last night at the grocery store and they just had the best taste to them. I took a few and chopped them up and threw them in this dee-lish muffin recipe–aaannnd I used honey to sweeten them instead of sugar. It was my first attempt at baking something using honey instead. It’s a different flavor, but all in all, they were still scrumptious!

Here is the recipe:

Strawberry Muffins

1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup honey
1 egg
2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsps baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups chopped strawberries

Directions:

Cream butter and sugar. Add egg and mix well.

Sift flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Add flour mixture and milk alternately to butter mixture. Add vanilla. Gently stir in strawberries.

Spoon batter into muffin pans.

Bake at 400º for 20-25 minutes.

Makes one dozen muffins.
