Ingredients

• 2.33 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 0.66 cup milk
• 8 tbsp butter (melted; one stick)
• 0.33 cup white chocolate (melted)
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh strawberries (chopped)
• 0.75 cup white chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for crumble)
• 0.25 cup granulated sugar (for crumble)
• 3 tbsp brown sugar (for crumble)
• 4 tbsp butter (melted or cold; for crumble)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 425°F (200°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick spray.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 2 1/3 cups flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt until well combined.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, mix the 2/3 cup milk, 8 tbsp melted butter, 1/3 cup melted white chocolate, 2 eggs, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.

4. 4

   Prepare the crumble by mixing 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 3 tbsp brown sugar, and 4 tbsp butter until it reaches a crumbly consistency.

5. 5

   Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not over mix.

6. 6

   Gently fold in the chopped strawberries and 3/4 cup white chocolate chips into the batter.

7. 7

   Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. Top with the prepared crumble mixture.

8. 8

   Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake at 425°F for 12-15 minutes.

9. 9

   Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

10. 10

    Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Note: The original instructions omit the specific step for adding the melted white chocolate; it is best incorporated with the wet ingredients. The bake time uses a high-to-low temperature method to ensure a high rise and moist interior.
