Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup salted butter softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 cups diced strawberries fresh is best, but frozen can be used if thawed completely and drained of excess juices

For The Crumble

  • 1/4 cup cold butter diced small
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup sugar

Instructions

  • Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. Set aside. Heat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • In the bowl of your stand mixer, add the butter and sugar. Beat until the two are evenly creamed together.
  • Add in the egg and vanilla, and mix again until evenly combined.
  • In a separate bowl add the flour, baking powder, & salt. Use a fork to whisk them together until evenly combined.
  • Alternate, adding some of the flour mixture then the buttermilk and slowly mixing the whole way. Wait until completely incorporated until you start with the next round.
  • Once it's all in the main mixing bowl, mix again just until you're sure it's all evenly combined.
  • Using a spatula fold in the all but a couple of the strawberries. Set the rest aside.

To Make The Muffins

  • Add 1/4 cup of batter to each lined muffin tin. Continue until all the liners have been filled.
  • Add the remaining diced strawberries out evenly onto the tops of the filled cups.

To Make The Crumble Topping

  • In a medium sized mixing bowl, add all of the crumble topping ingredients.
  • Mix them together using a sturdy spoon until everything's evenly incorporated and resembles an actual 'crumble'.
  • Sprinkle the crumble evenly out on top of the filled muffins.
  • Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and bake the muffins for 18-20 minutes.
  • Let the muffins cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan.
