These Jumbo Strawberry Muffins are sweetened with Manuka honey, offering a caramel flavor and fruity goodness.
First, you will start by adding the dry ingredients and strawberries to a bowl and mix until well combined. Next, use a microwave safe bowl, melt the coconut oil and add to the batter, along with the honey and eggs. Finally, add the strawberry batter to a muffin tray and bake at 325F for about thirty minutes.
Let’s begin!
What Does Lactose Free Mean?
First and foremost, I try my best to incorporate lactose free ingredients in all my recipes. These ingredients can include, butter, milk, cream cheese etc. With that being said, sometimes it is hard to make an entire recipe using ALL lactose free ingredients. For example, my ice cream recipes include, condensed milk- NOT LACTOSE FREE.
Contrary to what some may believe, lactose – free is not the same as dairy free. Lactose – free still contains milk, however, there is a certain component, I believe a type of sugar (I may be wrong) where the lactose is removed from dairy, making it lactose – free. Dairy free on the other hand, contains ZERO milk. Alternatives for dairy free are almond milk, oat milk, soy milk etc. You can learn more about the differences here.
Which Ingredients Are Lactose Free?
- Zero!

Gather all your ingredients, measure everything then set aside.
Step Two:
In a mixing bowl, add your dry ingredients and mix using a whisk to get rid of any lumps.
Step Three:
Add the strawberries to the bowl and mix.
Step Four:
Use a small bowl and crack the egg before pouring it into the dry mixture.
Cracking the eggs in a separate bowl will keep the eggshell from falling into your batter.
Step Five:
Melt the coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl, add honey to the bowl and mix.
Step Six:
Add the wet ingredients to the bowl and mix the entire bowl using a handheld mixer.
Step Seven:
Using an ice cream scoop or measuring spoon, scoop the batter from the bowl to the muffin tray. Bake the muffins at 325F for about thirty minutes.
Insert a toothpick in the center of any of the muffins. If the toothpick comes out clean the muffins are baked. If the strawberry batter comes up with the toothpick, the muffins need more time.
Serve and enjoy!

Frequently Asked Questions?
Can I use frozen strawberries instead of fresh strawberries?
Yes you can! Be sure to thaw and drain any excess liquid from the frozen strawberries before mixing into the batter.
How do I prevent the strawberries from sinking to the bottom?
To prevent the strawberries from sinking to the bottom toss them in some flour before mixing to the batter. You can also mix them directly into the dry ingredients, mix them together before adding the wet ingredients.
What type of honey should I use?
Wild flower honey is best when baking. For this recipe I decided to try Manuka Honey, which gave the muffins more of a caramelized flavor.
Jumbo Strawberry Muffins Tips and Variations:
- Use other berries, like blueberries or raspberries instead of strawberries.
- Instead of coconut oil use vegetable oil.
- If you are not a fan of honey or are allergic, replace the honey with 1/2 cup of granulated sugar.
- Add a cinnamon streusel to top off the muffins.
- Don’t over mix the batter.
