Recipe Notes

If you'd like these muffins to be gluten-free, use gluten-free flour.
If you're a chocoholic like me, you can sprinkle some chocolate chips in the batter or on top.
You can try this recipe with raspberries or blueberries, too.
You could add a half cup of chopped walnuts, if desired.
Sprinkle warm muffins with a bit of sugar, if you like.

Keep leftover muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Here's how to make it:

In one mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients.
In another mixing bowl, combine all wet ingredients. Mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients until blended. Set aside.
In a third mixing bowl, combine the strawberries and cream cheese.
Fill greased or lined muffin tins 1/3 full with the batter. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of the strawberry mixture to each muffin cup. Top with remaining batter so that each muffin cup is full.
Bake in a preheated 400-degree F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
