Strawberry Muffins

Spring and early summer is my favourite time of year. It’s berry good with all the fresh fruits and veggies from the garden. Sunny days, good food, a little wine …. ahh!

These muffins are so quick and easy to make and with little bits of strawberries inside. They are not too sweet … but sweet enough and delicious with the whipped cream and extra strawberries on top.

Only three types of gluten-free flours for this blend and there are no starches at all.
