Strawberry Shortcake Sourdough Muffins
If you like strawberry shortcake and muffins, these are the perfect combination of both. Every spring I get excited when the strawberries start showing up at the store and I can make strawberry muffins for my family. The sourdough makes the muffins so tender and delicious, and the crumb topping is amazing!
It is a one bowl recipe that comes together quickly, so you can have muffins for your family in no time.
These take between 20 to 25 minutes to bake depending on your oven. Bake until they are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Instructions

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12 count muffin tin with paper liners or grease generously to prevent sticking.
- Whisk together the butter, eggs, sourdough starter, sour cream, and vanilla until smooth.
- Add the remaing dry ingredients and strawberries with your wet mixture. Be sure to not over mix the batter so the muffins will stay tender.
- Divide the batter evenly into 12 muffins and sprinkle the tops with the crumb topping. Make sure to press the crumble gently on the top of the batter.

- These will be good covered at room temperature for 3 days or freezing them for up to 3 months works wonderfully.

I'm Erin, a busy mom of three, chauffeur, cook, housekeeper, and wanna be decorator. I love old movies, good books, and a daily trip to Lowes. We have recently bought a new home...one we are fixing up and changing everything. This blog is to record our renovating journey. This is not the first house we have done. Actually, it is our third. My husband and I love a project. Any project. We both love working on our home, have the same taste, (which is great), and love working and re purposing things on our budget. We can show you how to put together a high end and creative look without breaking the bank. Taking something old and recreating it into something new and exciting for any room is my passion. Hope you enjoy this decorating journey with us!
