Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven: Heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring it’s ready when your muffins are prepped.

-
Add Strawberries and Walnuts: Gently fold in the diced strawberries and chopped walnuts into the batter until evenly distributed.
-
Fill Muffin Wells: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin wells, filling each about two-thirds full to allow room for rising.
-
Bake: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Keep in mind that oven times may vary, so keep an eye on them towards the end of the baking time.
