Fruit
- 1 cup fresh diced strawberries
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup milk
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add-ins
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and uniform.
- Fold Ingredients Together: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently just until combined, careful not to overmix. Then fold in the diced strawberries and chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
- Bake: Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow muffins to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Use fresh strawberries for optimal flavor and moisture, frozen berries may alter the texture.
- Stir the batter just until combined to keep muffins tender and avoid toughness.
- Bring eggs and milk to room temperature before mixing for an even batter.
- Toss chocolate chips in a little flour prior to folding in to prevent sinking.
- Start checking doneness at 18 minutes to avoid overbaking as ovens vary.
