I told Heather I would share this recipe with her so I thought I could share it with all of you too! The recipe is from my Cooking Light cookbook and I make these a lot when strawberries are in season.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups halved strawberries
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons grated orange rind
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
cooking spray
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 cup strawberry jam or preserves (optional)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400
Combine first 4 ingredients in a blender or food processor, and process just until mixture is blended. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine flour, 1 1/4 cups sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add strawberry mixture to flour mixture, stirring just until mixture is moist. Spoon the batter into 12 muffin cups coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle batter evenly with 2 teaspoons sugar. Bake at 400 for 20 minutes or until muffins spring back when touched lightly in center. Remove muffins from pan immediately. Serve muffins with jam, if desired.
