Ingredients
Scale
- 3 3/4 cup flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 Tbsp. cinnamon
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 cup pecans, chopped
- 2 cups sweetened strawberries, sliced*
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs, beaten
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and nuts. In another bowl, combine strawberries (with their juice), oil, and eggs.
- Stir strawberry mixture into dry ingredients and stir just until moistened; do NOT over mix because it will affect the texture of the muffins.
- Fill greased muffin pan or muffin liners 3/4 full and bake for 15-18 minutes or until done. Makes about 2 dozen. These freeze well.
Notes
*To sweeten strawberries: Clean, hull, and slice into a bowl. Sprinkle with sugar (a couple of tablespoons for the amount in this recipe) and gently stir. Set aside. The sugar will bring out the juices in the berries.
