# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The Greek yogurt makes these so tender you'll wonder why you ever baked with regular dairy before.
  • They come together in under an hour and taste like you spent way more effort than you actually did.
  • Fresh strawberries mean each bite is different, unpredictable, and genuinely delicious.
02 -
  • Room temperature eggs are non-negotiable here—cold eggs won't blend smoothly with the Greek yogurt and will create a lumpy, uneven batter.
  • The strawberries must be patted dry and tossed in flour, or they'll release so much liquid that your muffins end up dense and soggy instead of fluffy.
03 -
  • If you want extra visual appeal and a slight crunch, sprinkle coarse sugar on top of each muffin just before baking.
  • Weigh your ingredients if you have a kitchen scale; it removes all guessing and gives you perfect muffins every single time.
