Strawberry Chocolate Chip Streusel Muffins

I recently shared this recipe over at Alderberry Hill. If you haven’t been over to Sarah’s blog, be sure to stop by – she has some pretty awesome recipes and projects! I’m sharing it over here for anyone who may have missed it!

As many of you know, I’m not a breakfast eater … but my kids love anything to do with breakfast! They love it all. Most days, I’m content with my toast and coffee.

From time to time, I like to make muffins (and believe me, I have tons of muffin recipes) not only for breakfast, but I like to have them around for snacks! They’re quick, easy and a hit with my kids – and me on occasion! These Strawberry Chocolate Chip Streusel Muffins are a family-favorite …. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

Strawberry Chocolate Chip Streusel Muffins

Printable recipe

Yield: 12 muffins

For the muffins:

2 cups all-purpose flour

½ cup sugar

1 tbsp. baking powder

½ tsp. salt

1 large egg

¾ cup milk

⅓ cup vegetable oil

¾ cup mini chocolate chips

½ cup strawberries, hulled and diced

For the streusel:

⅓ cup all-purpose flour

2 tbsp. sugar

2 tbsp. butter, softened

Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, beat the egg with the milk and oil. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in the chocolate chips and strawberries. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups ¾-full. In a separate small bowl, combine the streusel ingredients – cutting the butter into the flour and sugar until it forms coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the streusel mixture evenly over the tops of the muffins. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the muffins test clean when a toothpick is inserted near the middle. Cool 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
