STRAWBERRY CRUMB MUFFINS

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine the granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, and butter; using two forks or a pastry cutter, combine ingredients until the mixture is very crumbly and resembles a coarse meal. The crumbs should be pea-sized. Place mixture in the fridge or freezer until needed.
• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners; set aside.
• In a large bowl, sift together 3 cups of the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt; set aside.
• In a large bowl using an electric mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter and sugar and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy; about 3 minutes.
• Add in the egg, egg yolks, and vanilla and continue beating until well combined. Reduce mixer speed to low; alternate adding the flour mixture and the milk, beginning and ending with flour. Be sure not to over mix here.
• Turn mixer off and set batter aside for a moment. Place chopped strawberries and remaining flour into a bowl; toss to completely coat the berries in the flour. Add the strawberries and any excess flour into the batter; use a spatula to gently fold the berries into the batter until incorporated.
• Divide the batter evenly among prepared muffin tins. Top each muffin cup with 2 tablespoons of crumb topping.
• Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, or with a just a few moist crumbs attached. Cool muffins 10 minutes in the pan before transferring to a cooling rack.
• In a small bowl combine the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and cream; whisk until smooth, adding more cream as needed to reach desired consistency. Drizzle over the muffins right before serving.

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB CRUMBLE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Make the topping: Mix the oats, brown sugar, flour and salt in a small bowl. Add the butter and work it in with your fingers until the mixture comes together in clumps; set aside.
• Make the muffins: Toss the rhubarb and strawberries in a small bowl with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar; set aside. Whisk the flour, remaining 3/4 cup granulated sugar, the baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl; make a well in the center. Add the eggs to the well and gently whisk. Stir in the milk, melted butter and lemon juice until just combined with small bits of flour remaining. Stir in the rhubarb-strawberry mixture.
• Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them most of the way. Top with the crumb mixture. Bake until the muffins are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let the muffins cool 5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

STRAWBERRY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line muffin tins with paper liners.
• Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together in a large bowl. Stir with your hand to be sure the ingredients are combined. In a 2-cup glass measure, combine the milk, eggs, and melted butter. Make a well in the middle of the dry mixture, pour the wet mixture into the well, and stir until just combined. There will be some lumps but don't overmix the batter! Add the strawberries and sugar and stir gently to combine.
• Using a 2 1/4-inch ice cream scoop, spoon the batter into the muffin cups to fill the liners. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean and the tops are nicely browned.

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE CRUMB MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F Grease and flour a muffin pan.
• Whisk together flour, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, and salt, and set aside.
• In another small bowl combine the melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla, and beaten egg. Stir into the flour mixture just until combined. It will be lumpy. Do not overmix!
• Divide batter evenly into each muffin cup. Gently insert the strawberry slices vertically into the batter. Set aside.
• To make the crumb mixture, whisk together the butter, sugars, and cinnamon until smooth in another bowl. It will look like batter until you add all the flour, so don't panic!
• Stir in the flour with a whisk, then stir with a fork to create the crumbly texture. Add more flour as needed to create the correct crumb size.
• Sprinkle on to muffin tops - crumb topping will dry up and crisp in the oven.
• Bake 20 minutes, or until the crumb topping is browned, and a toothpick inserted into the muffin comes out clean with only moist crumbs.
