I don’t normally buy strawberries out of season, because well….they are pretty sad to eat alone, as they are never truly ripe, but this recipe for strawberry muffins was worth it, to have a bite of summer in the middle of Winter. The boys loved them. They are between dessert and a morning muffin, pairing well with an omelet for breakfast. It will become a regular recipe come summer when the berries are pouring in….
