Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour sifted
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp baking soda
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup whole milk room temperature
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries diced
  • 0.25 cup strawberry jam for filling

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the diced strawberries.
  • Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with batter. Add a teaspoon of strawberry jam to the center of each cup.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before serving.

Notes

For a richer flavor, substitute the milk with buttermilk.
