Strawberry Muffins

These Strawberry Muffins use the season's freshest fruit to make an easy, delectable treat perfect for breakfast and snack or dessert! When the seasons change and all the new crops of fruits and vegetables return to our farmer’s market, I get totally excited — and when strawberries start showing their face again, I feel like I’ve gone to heaven. There’s nothing better than that bright red berry staring back at you ready to be devoured!
