Bursting with fresh, plump and sweet local strawberries, these fruity oversized muffins are soft, tender and make a perfect summer dessert or a delightful breakfast treat with coffee. They bake tall and moist just like the ones you get at your favourite local bakery. Buttermilk adds pleasant tanginess to baked goods, and like yoghrt and sour cream, it also helps tenderize gluten, giving baked goods a softer texture and more body. For an easy substitute of buttermilk, measure one tablespoon of lemon juice into one cup of milk and let sit for 5 minutes.
If you don't have a jumbo muffin tin, then use a regular 12-cup muffin pan and adjust the baking time to 15-18 minutes. You can substitute the strawberries for any seasonal fruit, or even chocolate chips!

- Preheat oven to 200C/400F. Grease a 6-cup jumbo muffin tin and set aside.
- In a large bowl, add the spelt flours, coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add in cubed cold butter and using your fingers, rub butter into the flour mixture until crumbly.
- Mix together the buttermilk and eggs in another bowl and pour over the butter-flour mixture. Stir until just incoorporated. Gently fold in diced strawberries.
- Divide the muffin batter into prepared muffin cups and sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon of brown sugar on top.
- Bakefor 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few crumbs. Allow muffins to cool for about 5 minutes in the muffin tin before transferring them to a wire rack.

Good things should come in jumbo sizes! These strawberry muffins are really pretty.
Love all the whites and reds! I make my muffins and sponges with buttermilk as well as I don't use eggs. It is much softer with buttermilk or yogurt.
They look delicious. Perfect for brunch or tea.

This looks like a must for the upcoming strawberry season. I think it also be pretty made in a springform pan. Thanks for the share.
I've actually never baked with buttermilk, but I know it helps reach a moist and light texture - I can definitely see that! The muffins look terrific, loving those pieces of juicy strawberries.
Oh yum. These look great.
How delicious Angie, I love strawberries and I would enjoy making these muffins. I have a long list of your recipes that I have bookmarked :) Thank you very much!
Il ne manque plus qu'une tasse de thé pour déguster ces muffins si appétissants !
I must admit that I have never tried using buttermilk in baking before, but I like the idea of a softer, creamier texture, so this is definitely something I shall be trying out! :)
Oversized sounds great, especially for a homemade treat like this. Can't wait for strawberry season to be here.
