Strawberry Muffins

One morning this weekend, I woke up early and knew I wouldn't be able to get back to sleep. So I got up and decided to make Luke breakfast. I found some strawberries in the back of the fridge that needed to be used up soon (I hate wasting food) and remembered this recipe. They turned out so moist and yummy. These are not super sweet which we like because we are generally not fans of really sweet things for breakfast. Although  I will get a craving for a Krispy Kreme occasionally! We had these with cold glasses of chocolate milk, which was the perfect combination!
