Fresh Strawberry Muffins

I know I've said it before, but I'll say it again. I LOVE MUFFINS! For me, nothing beats a homemade, warm from the oven muffin (or scone!) for breakfast. These muffins are fantastic and loaded with delicious fresh strawberries. What more could you ask for?

Fresh Strawberry Muffins

2 1/2 cups flour

2/3 cup sugar

1 tsp baking soda

3/4 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

1 1/2 cups fresh sliced strawberries

1 cup buttermilk

1/3 cup butter, melted

1 1/4 tsp vanilla

1 egg, lightly beaten

2 egg whites, lightly beaten

1 1/2 TBSP sugar, for tops

Combine flour through salt in large bowl. Add strawberries. Make a well in the center of mixture. Combine buttermilk through eggs; add to flour mixture. Stir until moistened.

Divide batter into muffin tins. Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes.

    Those do look great. I like how you also included scones as a fave breakfast. Muffins, scones, oatmeal, pancakes, french toast anything not out of a box or can right?
