Fresh Strawberry Muffins

Last year we planted strawberry plants, but you don’t get strawberries until the year. Well it’s that time now, and my husband and kids harvested our first batch. My cute husband came in and immediately washed the strawberries. I told him you aren’t suppose to wash them, until your ready to use them. So I had to use up my strawberries. Luckily I had just found this recipe for Fresh Strawberry Muffins from A Recipe A Day.
These muffins were tender and delicious. The down side is you really have to make these the day you bake them. I put some in a container for the next day and they were not so great. Because the strawberries have a lot of moisture in them and the muffins are so moist, they get gooey and gross the next day.
