Servings6 big muffins
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour / maida
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅓ cup sugar
- ½ cup thick curd
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ½ teaspoon strawberry essence
- ½ cup cut fresh strawberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven at 180 deg C.
- Measure flour and add it to sieve. Add baking powder and baking soda to it. Sieve it in a mixing bowl.
- In another mixing bowl add oil and sugar. Mix well with a whisk.
- Add curd. Mix well until sugar completely dissolves.
- Now add flour mixture. Mix it.
- Add strawberry essence. Add chopped strawberries reserving a tablespoon for topping. Give a quick mix.
- Arrange muffin liners. My liners were too big for my mould so I lined them up in paper cups and ramekins.
- Using a ice cream scooper, scoop the batter and fill the liners till ¾th.
- Top with reserved cut strawberries. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 mins or until the top turns golden.
- You can use a toothpick to check if its done. Enjoy Eggless Strawberry Muffins!
Notes
- Mixing – I mix oil and sugar first until combined, then add curd and mix until smooth. Use spatula to avoid over mixing which makes muffin tough.
- Curd consistency – I use thick curd and or let it drain in cloth for a while if runny. Thick curd is important because it give better texture and muffin not come out dense.
- Strawberry – I chop strawberries small and add them just before baking, some I keep aside for topping.
- Oven temperature – I make sure the oven is preheated well before baking as it is important for even baking. Muffin needs consistent heat so top gets golden while inside stay soft and moist.
- Filling muffin – I fill the liner till three quarter full and leave space for muffin to rise. Dont overfill.
- Testing doneness – I poke the toothpick in centre and if it comes out clean, then muffin is ready. If still wet batter on toothpick then give a few more minutes to bake.
