Strawberry muffins are delightful baked treats made with fresh or frozen strawberries, flour, sugar, eggs, and other common baking ingredients. They are soft, moist, and bursting with the sweet and tangy flavour of strawberries. Muffins, as a concept, originated in England and the United States, with distinct versions in both regions. These fruit-filled versions are popular worldwide, especially in countries where strawberries are abundant. Perfect for breakfast, tea-time, or as a snack, strawberry muffins are a versatile way to enjoy the natural sweetness and vibrant flavour of strawberries in a comforting, home-baked form.
