  1. YUMMMMM! Do you think I could use frozen berries, thawed of course? It would probably turn my muffins pink, which Maggie would delight in :)

  4. These look quite yummy. I'll have to try the recipe when fresh strawberries start here. They are terribly late this year due to our bad spring, which makes this strawberry lover quite upset :(

  8. I just made strawberry muffins for the first time last week. A little different than this recipe so I'll have to compare. I loved them though. I had never baked with strawberries before. I was wondering how long the strawberries stayed fresh after baking. I guess the answer is to eat them all right away and it won't be an issue:)

  9. Oh my more yummy recipes to put into my Billie Jo cookbook :) I do not think I have had strawberry muffins before. We have a strawberry stand just down the street that I visit often. How long do these muffins last and do you keep then in the fridge?
