Strawberry Coffee Cake Muffins

Strawberry Coffee Cake Muffins: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

My husband could care less about muffins and coffee cakes. Most times he might eat a bite or two just to try it, probably for my sake, and then he will not have any more. Well this time for some reason he decided to eat a whole muffin and to my surprise he loved it. He loved the muffins so much that he was excited to eat the leftovers the next day. The following weekend when he learned I was making muffins he asked if they were the strawberry ones, because they were just so good. 

Before making this recipe please note that the oven is preheated at one temperature, then reduce right before putting the muffins in to bake. 
Strawberry Coffee Cake Muffins

Ingredients:
    Muffins
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 cups diced strawberries
  • Crumb Topping
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, diced small
Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 375º F. Line a muffin tin with liners.
  2. In a large bowl cream together the butter and sugar. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl whisk together the flour and the baking powder.
  4. Slowly add in half of the buttermilk mixing until combined, then add in half of the flour mixture, mixing until combined. Repeat with the remaining buttermilk and flour mixture.
  5. Fold in the strawberries and fill the muffin liners 3/4 full with the batter.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and both sugars. Cut in the diced cold butter with a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Evenly sprinkle the crumble over the muffin batter.
  7. Reduce the heat to 350º F. Bake the muffins for 18-20 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Enjoy!!!
