Ingredients
Muffins
- 3 eggs
- 120 grams (4.2 ounces) powdered sugar
- 120 grams (4.2 ounces) butter, melted
- 300 milliliters (1.27 cups) milk
- Juice and zest of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons sublimated strawberries
- 300 grams (10.6 ounces) flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
Equipment
- Muffin Pan
A non-stick muffin pan is ideal for this recipe. Make sure to grease it well or use paper liners for easy removal.
- Mixing Bowls
You'll need at least two mixing bowls: one for the wet ingredients and another for the dry. Go for stainless steel or glass for best results.
- Whisk
A good whisk is essential for combining the wet ingredients smoothly. An electric mixer can speed things up if you're in a hurry.
- Measuring Cups and Spoons
Accurate measurement is key in baking. Invest in a reliable set of measuring cups and spoons to ensure consistency.
- Oven
Preheat your oven to 356F (180C) ahead of time to ensure uniform baking. An oven thermometer can help if you doubt your oven's accuracy.

Faq
- Can I use fresh strawberries instead of sublimated strawberries?
Yes, you can use fresh strawberries, but make sure to chop them finely and lightly coat them in flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins.
- What if I don't have lemon zest?
If you don't have lemon zest, you can use a bit more lemon juice or even some lemon extract. However, the zest adds a unique flavor that elevates the muffins.
- How can I ensure my muffins are fluffy?
Make sure not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can lead to dense muffins. Gently fold the ingredients together until just combined.
- Can I freeze these muffins?
Absolutely! These muffins freeze well. Just make sure they are completely cooled before wrapping them individually and placing them in a freezer-safe bag.
- Can I double this recipe?
Yes, you can double the recipe. Just make sure to use larger mixing bowls and possibly bake in batches if your oven can't accommodate all the muffins at once.
- Can I add nuts or other fruits to this recipe?
Certainly! Adding nuts like walnuts or pecans can provide extra crunch. You can also experiment with different dried fruits or berries for added variety.
