When I started this blog, strawberries were one of my go to ingredient for recipes. Now looking back at it, I understand why. Obviously having started this blog in the springs is a huge part of that but the other thing is that strawberries are one of my favorite fruit ever!

I could seriously eat strawberries for every meal of the day and wouldn’t be bored of them, and that’s how this recipe came around.

These are the best strawberry jam stuffed muffins

These strawberry jam stuffed muffins are light, packed with berries and will brighten up any morning. The actual muffin batter is made with greek yogurt to make them rich and moist at the same time. It then gets a generous amount of sliced strawberries added to the batter and is then filled with fresh strawberry jam.

How to store strawberry jam-filled muffins?

You can store these muffins in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. I like to have them cold right out of the refrigerator but I know others might prefer them a bit warmer. Pop them in the microwave for 10-20 seconds and enjoy!

Freezing strawberry muffins

You can also store these muffins in the freezer. Place them in an airtight container and freeze for up to 2 months. Whenever you are ready to enjoy them, thaw them in the freezer overnight or on the counter top if you want them a bit faster.

You can then either heat them up in the oven at 350F for 5 minutes of in the microwave fro 10-20 seconds.

PRO TIP:

When adding the streusel topping to the muffins, gently press the streusel down the batter so that it sticks to the actual muffin while baking.

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup greek yogurt
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup milk
  • ⅓ cup oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 & ¼ cup flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup strawberries chopped
  • ⅓ cup strawberry jam

For the streusel topping

  • ⅓ cup flour
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • ⅛ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoon butter cold

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350F (177C), then line a 12 count muffin pan with 10 cupcake liners and set aside.

Make the streusel

  • In a small bowl, mix the flour, granulated sugar, and cinnamon together. Cut the cold butter into small pieces then mix it into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or a fork. until the mixture resembles tick crumbs.

Make the muffin batter

  • In a medium bowl whisk in the greek yogurt, vanilla extract, lemon juice, milk, and oil and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.
  • Pour the wet mixture over the dry mixture and gently fold until smooth. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
  • Fill each muffin cup with a small cookie scoop of batter, make sure that the bottom of the muffin cup is covered. Now, add one teaspoon of the strawberry jam. Cover the jam with more muffin batter and repeat this for all of the muffins.
  • Sprinkle each muffin with the streusel topping and gently press that streusel down to make sure that it sticks to the muffins when you bake it.
  • Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. If the streusel doesn't get golden brown you can always broil the muffins for 1-3 minutes making sure to keep an eye out on them since every oven tends to be different. Let the muffins cool down in the muffin pan for 15 minutes before transfering to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Sprinkle powdered sugar on top before serving for a beautiful finish.

    Delicious! I made these with raspberry jam, raspberries, and raspberry greek yogurt (reduced the sugar). My family enjoyed these thouroughly and begged for more.

    Wonderful little beauties! I chose not to add the fresh strawberries since it is January and strawberries are not that great. I will definitely add the fresh berries when they are in season again. These muffins are just delicious. Will be making these often. Thank you for a great recipe!
