Summer muffins!

Greetings on this sunny and windy day. Yes I realize that I suck at being consistent with this blog, but that's just how life is sometimes. Moving right along...this morning I am making super yummy, summery, strawberry and oat muffins. They are the perfect little treat for a morning coffee with friends or an afternoon tea. They are from my normal muffin recipe that I use quite often, but this time I added strawberries (so delicious) and some oats. They are the daintiest pink color, but are not dainty in size. Since I am hosting 6 lovely ladies this morning I made them the super size, coffee shop type...sometimes too much of a good thing...is still a good thing! These scrumptious muffins are currently in the oven plumping up and smelling the house of serious goodness. If you are looking for a simple, but awesome muffin recipe try these. They don't take very much time to prepare or bake.

Short and simple this time, but at least I wrote something.
Until next time, enjoy the beauty that surrounds you in different ways.

Recipe for muffins ( I substitute the berries if I don't have any, also I use flavored or plain yogurt)

2 eggs
2 dl yogurt or sour cream
1dl butter or margarine (softened)
5 dl flour
1.5 dl sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. vanilla
2-3 dl berries or cut up pieces of fruits
1-2 tsp. cinnamon (optional)
1.5 dl oats (optional)

Whisk the eggs and sugar together. Mix in the yogurt and butter, then add the berries/fruit bits. Batter will be lumpy. Blend in dry ingredients and mix thoroughly, batter should be thick. For large muffin form, 2-3 tbsp. of batter in each. For small muffin form 1-2 tbsp. of batter. Bake at 300F or 225C for 15-20mins. Muffins should look cracked on top.
