I'm a huge fan of Weelicious.com, Catherine makes some amazing kid friendly food that is really good for you. With berries being in season I decided to try this recipe for strawberry muffins. The kids could not get enough of them!
Strawberry Muffins (Makes 24-28 Mini Muffins)
2 Cups All Purpose Flour
3 Tsp Baking Powder
1/2 Tsp Salt
1 Large Egg
3/4 Cup Milk (low fat or whole cow’s milk, almond, rice or soy milk will work)
1/4 Cup Vegetable or Canola Oil
1/2 Cup Honey or Agave Nectar
1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
1 Tsp Lemon Zest
1 1/2 Cups Strawberries, chopped
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. In a bowl, combine the first 3 ingredients.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk egg and add milk, oil, honey, vanilla, and lemon zest and stir.
4. Using a standing mixer or hand mixer, slowly combine the dry ingredients with the wet until incorporated (try not to over mix the batter).
5. Add the strawberries to the batter and slowly combine.
6. Line or grease muffin tins and fill 2/3 of the way with batter.
7. Bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick tester comes out clean.
8. Cool and serve.
* If you want to make regular sized muffins, fill 12 muffin cups and bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Those look yummy!!
I just told Mike, "I might make these strawberry muffins." and his reply, "Tonight? Start bakin'...they look good!" So I guess seeing as tomorrow is Father's Day and all I will bake them tonight! Lucky for me I actually have all the ingredients on hand! I hate when I really want to make something and don't have what you need to make it.
