So my Strawberry Sugar Muffins is an incredible twist on strawberry shortcakes. I was trying to figure out a recipe to use up the abundance of fresh strawberries available this time of year…. TIME OUT!! My recipe for Strawberry Sugar Muffins would have been posted a week ago but for some reason my local grocery had issues getting fresh strawberries from their supplier. For four days in a row I went to buy fresh berries and nothing, Very FRUSTRATING!Strawberry Sugar Muffins is the ultimate breakfast or dessert.

Okay, I am off my high horse. Well, it was worth the wait. I made the strawberry sauce for my Strawberry Sugar Muffins in the slow cooker but you could easily make it on the stove. but hey I am always looking for new slow cooker recipes since I am trying to post one recipe a week for a year. I think I need revise my expectations to 26 weeks of slow cooker recipes. Once a week is a little overwhelming and besides you can only make Crock Pot Swedish Meatballs so many ways.

    Quinn what a delicious way to use strawberries! We haven’t got local strawberries in the UK yet but my plants are just beginning to flower with the warmer weather this week. I think these would also be delicious with peaches? You could slow cooker those too? Thank you for sharing at Fiesta Friday 🙂
