These strawberry lemon breakfast muffins were not my favorite, but since my 3 year old ate three of them so far today I thought that I’d ask her what to write about them.
Me: “Tell me about your muffin.”
K: “You take pictures of them.”
Me: “How do they taste?”
K: “Good. They my favorite muffin.”
There you have it folks, a review by a preschooler. These muffins were very easy to make and my kids liked them a lot. The original recipe called for wheat flour but reviewers complained that they were too dense. I used all purpose flour for this recipe. I do think that the texture of this muffin was good. Our strawberries were not the sweetest and despite dusting them with some sugar, the muffins still could have used a bit more sweetener. I think a light cream cheese frosting or thin lemony glaze would really make these muffins stand out.
Overall these muffins were tasty and I enjoyed the subtle hint of almond that accented the sweet berries and the tart lemon. I still prefer a homemade blueberry muffin hands down!
