Step-by-Step Instructions for Strawberry Cream Cheese Muffins
- Prepare the Streusel Topping by combining flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Add melted butter and mix until crumbly. Set aside.
- Mix the dry ingredients in another bowl: flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until evenly distributed.
- In a large bowl, mix the wet ingredients: egg, sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and Greek yogurt. Whisk until smooth.
- Combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Gently fold in the diced strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.
- Create the cream cheese filling by beating together cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and cornstarch until smooth.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and prepare muffin tins. Spoon batter into cups, add cream cheese filling, and top with streusel.
- Bake the muffins at 425°F for 5 minutes, then lower to 350°F and bake for another 22-25 minutes until golden brown.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or allow to cool completely.
