Healthy Strawberry Muffins made with olive oil. This is a great recipe to make as a nut free snack to bring to work, or a quick and easy grab and go breakfast idea.
I love strawberries. Love love love. With a capital L. The color, the flavor, the look of them. Can’t get enough. But of course, when I get strawberries, I can’t stop myself. I need to make me some strawberry roses.
I used to work at a bubble tea shop where I had to make crepes, and I would decorate them with strawberries shaped as roses, and load on the whipped cream and the chocolate syrup. Needless to say, those who were on a diet didn’t approve of these, but they ate them none the less. Something about these roses makes everything all that much more inviting.
Weirdly I wasn’t all that wild about this muffins, but everyone else LOVED them. They were gone by the early evening. And it wasn’t like I made only 6 or something, I made quite a bit (since I’m always making somewhat small muffins. I like small things :D)
I just love strawberries so I go a little carried away and bought 3 packs of them, and I don’t know what to do with all of them! I guess I’m going to be baking again soon.

Cathleen, the recipe sounds interesting with strawberries.
Hi Cathleen! What an adorable idea! I bet your customers loved this adorable touch 🙂
Cathleen, I've never had strawberries until I moved to the US. We didnt' really have them in the Philippines, unless they're from Baguio and they never even reached my hometown. I love strawberries too… I can't wait for the Farmer's Market to open here because all the ones I bought from the grocery store have been disappointing thus far. Love these muffins!
I am a strawberry addict also, love them any way I can get them.
