I really like these made with fresh strawberries, but you can also make them with frozen unsweetened strawberries – thaw and drain them before use.

Created this recipe today. It made 12 muffins and one mini loaf. Used frozen sliced strawberries almost totally thawed, so increased bake time by about 7 mins / toothpick test ok. Added a dash of allspice to dry ingredient mix. Very moist and interesting texture. Overall a great recipe – these are perfect for breakfast / brunch, add a little slice of triple creamy bris, serve with iced honey/ginseng green tea.
