Description
Delightful cupcakes bursting with fresh strawberry flavor and a fluffy texture.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, pureed
- 1/2 cup strawberries, chopped (for toppings)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake tin with paper liners.
- Cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well. Then, stir in the milk, vanilla extract, and strawberry puree until fully combined.
- Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chopped strawberries gently.
- Distribute the batter evenly into the cupcake liners, filling them about two-thirds full. Bake for 18-20 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before topping.
Notes
Top with whipped cream or buttercream frosting for an extra treat. Consider adding lemon zest for a refreshing twist.
