strawberry muffins forever


i have been craving strawberry muffins for the past few days and finally got round to baking up a batch sunday evening. they were so yum! i substituted all purpose flour for whole wheat and used brown sugar instead of white. these muffins are a great way to use up the not so pretty looking strawberries in the fridge. i topped them off with a cinnamon sugar mix to add some extra sweet without adding it throughout the entire muffin.

hope you get to give them a try!

*i am feeling much better by the way- still tired but i have a feeling that won't go away until little miss arrives :)
