Calories: 237kcal
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 Cups plain flour
- 1/2 Cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 Cup butter at room temperature
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 Cup whole milk
- 3/4 Cup chocolate chips
- 1 Cup strawberries roughly chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease or line 12 muffin tins.
- In a medium sized bowl sift together the flour, baking powder and the salt. Add the strawberries to the dry mixture and coat completely. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl cream the butter and sugar. After the mixture is pale and fluffy, add the eggs one at a time mixing until they are incorporated into the batter. Whisk in the vanilla.
- Next, add half the flour to the batter and stir in gently. Then add all the milk and mix in the remaining flour. Once it is all incorporated, add the chocolate chips and stir to combine.
- Pour batter into your prepared muffins tins and bake anywhere from 15 - 20 minutes. Insert a toothpick in the center and when just a few crumbs come off, it is done. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool for just a few minutes. Remove from pan after about 5 minutes and let it cool for a further few minutes. These can be served straight away. Will keep for a few days in an airtight container.
