Easy super soft strawberry lemon muffins with affordable ingredients and no hard steps.
I want sure if I wanted to name them muffins or cupcakes but since I don’t like the word cupcake they’re gonna be muffins, it’s probably the easiest recipe ever and absolutely delicious. They’re perfect for breakfast and you can freeze them without any problem they’re always gonna be delicious.
For the frosting we used mascarpone and glaze sugar (thin sugar aka icing sugar) we accidentally made 24 muffins but I’m not mad. I’m still eating them and I’m so grateful to have something to eat every morning until I run out.
For this recipe you’re gonna need:
- Milk
- vegetable oil
- eggs
- Granulated sugar
- all purpose flour
- baking powder
- lemon zest
- Strawberries
- mascarpone cheese
- Icing sugar
- Jam

We personally love to add a lot of lemon, you need to be careful not to peel the white part because it would affect the flavor. If you want them to be even more delicious I would recommend you to add blueberries, strawberries or raspberries as well (If they’re frozen make sure you coat them with flour before adding it to the mix)
Our favorite part is the sugar on top of the muffins, after baking its crunchy and delicious, i could eat only the part from the top and be the happiest person alive.
Did I forget to mention it’s also jam filled? We are gonna link here the jam recipe so you guys can follow it. We didn’t have enough of strawberry jam so we filled it with blueberry jam but nobody needs to know that right :)…
I will always recommend you guys to make jam on your own and to not buy the ones from the stores because they’re so easy to make and they’re a million times better. Same with the frosting, I didn’t know they sold frosting on the stores and I’m not sure how it tastes but this frosting recipe is so easy you can make it by yourself.
