These strawberry lemonade muffins are so light and tender, and so flavorful too! They're bursting with juicy strawberries, and perfect for breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients:
3/4 c. sugar
Zest of 1 lemon
1 1/2 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 c. oil
1 egg
1/3 c. milk
1/2 tsp. milk
1 tsp. lemon extract 
1 1/2 c. chopped fresh strawberries

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.  Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners or spray with nonstick cooking spray.  In a large bowl, rub the lemon zest into the sugar until the mixture is fragrant.  Add the flour, baking powder and salt.  Mix to combine.  In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the oil, egg, milk, vanilla and lemon extract.  Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.  Gently fold in the fresh strawberries.  Scoop into prepared muffin tin, filling 3/4 full.  Bake 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
